    I walked away from a honda civic years ago and felt super down about not getting it but the guy ended up calling me back the next day and took the lower price I was trying to get. As a buyer being able to walk away is important even if it sucks sometimes.

    And that's where I was getting at with all my comments above.

    You don't see it happen more anywhere else than in the car business as some people really can't say no and just walk away.

    Then you've got a smaller group that'll easily walk away, say no, completely pass up a vehicle, all because they're set on - their needs, their budget, whatever it is.

    Generally speaking, the common thing with those that have no problem walking away and those not willing to settle is that they all happen to have excellent credit. That has to go hand in hand with not being impulsive, and being much more mindful about how one spends their money.

    Those specific year LC's are more often found with a rear locker than not.

    A rear locker and lack of holes in the frame isn't a needle in a haystack; you should stop putting the vehicle on a pedestal.

    I just returned from seeing Mountainfilm on tour. Great filmography.

    The Ghost Resorts of Japan was a chilling reminder of how quickly trends can change.

    Added a new car to the fleet.

    Weird to have a Toyota with actual power for once.

    Ain't that the truth, the repairs I just did to my 2017 BMW M3 was more expensive than this entire Sequoia.

    A friend's parents just sold their old Sequoia, I think she said it had 400k+ on it. My only gripe with them is the fuel economy, and that's only because I'm used to dailying Civic. Sequioas are right on par for a big v8 SUV.

    Not all that much honestly, front lights and rear lights and an amp for now. I need to set up some inside shell lights and I want to get a 12V port back there too. Potentially adding a 12v fridge sometime in the next year too, but I still need to make a decision on power storage for that. Drfinitely don’t need this many connections, but it was either 12 circuit for $39 or 6 circuit for $35 lol

    it’s like when you go to Taco Bell and the large drink is only 10c more, gotta go with the large.

    (Gf) Like a third of the time. Probably more once(if) I improve the sleeping situation past a foam pad thrown in the bed.
