    Wish i would've went this way with my Taco. And I had planned to do it with my Tundra build before it was hit. How long did the process take from starting the application to auction start?

    I may do it with mine. Even though there’s no suitable replacement since I get better gas mileage with the supercharger and camper than a 2wd van.

    Electrician installed an additional breaker box, since the home’s original was full, and wired everything.

    My wife says they are toasty.

    is it worth paying CL $5 to post an auto for sale? been so long I did anything like that (actually posting a vehicle for sale), and it seems like CL is a shitshow of ........... shit from California.

    I still swear by CL, but honestly haven't sold a vehicle on that platform since '21, when I told two. Of course, that wasn't in CO...

    Never sold a vehicle so can't comment on that specifically, but generally speaking...

    Facebook Marketplace seems to be more popular than Craigslist around here/these days. Marketplace uses Facebook Messenger instead of Craigslists's email/text/phone options (although I think Craigslist has the option for chat now too?). That's all for better or worse, as Marketplace is notorious for lazy and flaky buyers.

    To me, $5 seems like a worthwhile gamble just to avoid Marketplace. If it doesn't sell in a week or two, you can always list it somewhere else.

    Yeh, he works with C.O.R.E, and Keep Trails Open. I’m hoping some he is successful in some of the court proceedings he is apart of, as they are looking to get a lot of trails reopened (The Gulches, North Twin Cone).

    A coworker sold his caddy on cl in like the last month. He got $1k more than CarMax was offering.

    He's also on the older side and doesn't have Facebook. There were a few scam messages, but I think it's less than FB would have gotten

    I need to remove all my sod.

    Did you just use a shovel? Or did you rent a sod cutter?

    I have about 1000 sq ft.

    I don’t know if I gave it in me to go at it with just a shovel.
