1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Yeah no, cash for me

No sense paying interest for an asset that depreciates greatly

 

Oh wow

 

Lol man, that came out meaner than I thought

Naw, just doesn't make sense for me to finance a camper

 

Oh no, didn't take it mean, it's smart but meh, can't take it with you

 

I know you go out often, so you'll make good use of it.

The stupid financial purchases are those for a camper or RV only to sit for years in someone's parking lot or yard.

The mark-ups on RVs especially are crazy high (retail vs cost).

Heck you should've seen the recent post about someone trading in a 3rd Gen for another 3rd Gen (and almost having their own truck paid off)

Imagine going into a new term (with today's rates). That's a shit ton of extra money to just throw away.

 

I’m in New York so I haven’t seen them yet

 

Did some truck stuff yesterday

 

3/4 of the crib always goes unused



Kid has a tendency to sleep in the corner so he can peer out the door

 

She didn't do well with it until she was closer to 3, but getting her to sleep was always an issue when she was a baby. When traveling though up until recently we used an inflatable toddler mattress like this, she just recently grew out of it and just uses a normal bed now when we travel. But this thing is pretty cool, folds up compactly and easy to inflate

 

Our cats were acting weird AF last night and this AM, yelling and zooming all over, and Dex was howl-sleeping which he rarely does...wonder if an earthquake or some shit is about to go down

 

I'll have to check that out

Again the traveling thing never bothers him, and in fact he prefers that the vehicle is moving

Whenever we stopped for awhile and ate in the car or something he'd start getting vocal

The one time he did have trouble sleeping was at the hotel during Stephanie's graduation; took a lot of holding him and falling asleep in my arms/chest until he went down but that kid did not want to go to bed

 

The one thing about camping with a small kid, that can walk, is they like to wander around and never really stop, so they're exhausted by the time it's time for bed.

 

HELLL YEA KEEP ON TRUCKING HOSS

 

growing up I always had buddies drill the "don't ever finance toys" mentality into me. in general yes but like you say there's a big difference between something you're gonna use all the time vs let sit lol

Michelin has a new Defender tread pattern. these look bitchin for highway towing/rain/ice. not sure there's enough voids for snow duty

 

Yeah never had to deal with the customer support but i hear stories. Like if the tool broke and its to new you gotta deal with who you purchased it from and not Milwaukee or you gotta wait for the whole warranty process. Me personally a broken tool is down time so i just go get new ones. But alot of my stuff i use at work so my company buts them and they ship a pallet off every once and awhile to Milwaukee to get stuff repaired or replaced.

 

Couple self tappers and they will be ready for snow

 

I just saw a energy drink the other day called “Cocaine” wonder what that has

 

that's the spirit
