    Have you forgotten who you're speaking to?:burp:







    The missus has been worried about us finding the right space (we need 2 bathrooms due to my disgustingness, and 3bd due to stuff accumulated as well as my need to he locked in a separate bed cause I'm a crazy person)


    I tried telling her we only need to find the right space for her and I'll either sleep at the shop or move back into the truck/get a camper. ... she was not amused lol, she won't let me be houseless again. Heez like she cares about me or something :laughing:

    The other thing is when you start getting older and you're not the kinda person who is having kids etc, those other fun little details can be things that maybe you can play with. So I'm not saving to give a kid a private school education but maybe my mom wants some smiles and a growl under the right foot ya know...

    Yeah, I'd do the same for my mom if I had the means. Would you like an 89 560SL next :evil:

    I'd imagine you'll find something decent.

    Don't tempt me because thats a sexy car and it's white and you have the hardtop to boot. It's one of those that if I had room to keep all this stuff it'd be a quick conversation.

    I have all the service records back to 89 and it is in perfect condition too. Just did both fuel pumps and filters last summer. Definitely need a garage space for it though, be a shame to store outside. I wish I could find someone I know to buy it though, it's really an excellent car I'd hate for it to get neglected.

    I'd hate myself if I put that in the driveway so close to the ocean. Even with a cover, I've seen things go bad.
    I'm trying to move away from it in the next year. Amazing what a couple miles will do.

    I'm just over half a block off. Salt air is so thick sometimes you can just wipe layers of it off your car. Smells great, sounds wonderful, awesome to enjoy, but man it wreaks havoc in its sneaky ways. Fluid film is your friend.

    The whole engine takes 3 gallons from empty to full so it does seem excessive

    Any of y’all ever hear of anyone rebuilding/restuffing the back seats in a midsize for better comfort? I keep thinking it’s really the only big deficiency on my frontier. With some comfy seats and maybe a 4x4 conversion it could be a lot of fun.

    @Tour991 the Kings are going to give me a goddamn heart attack I swear

    Play the first half of the game like absolute shit then flip the table and surprise everyone seems to be their strategy so far

    With that mentality you will never disappoint anyone. They will never expect anything from you.

    I had a frontier as a rental. I thought it wasn't bad. Interior was nice just hated the turning radius.
