    It sucks but I think it's the right decision. I see on here all the time "Buy it back, build a toy, etc etc" but man that is so much work and money.

    Its not worth it. I’ve watched so many of you guys build a toy and then end up getting rid of it when the practicality becomes zero :(

    That's a fair decision and one I'd also probably make.

    Thats what i’m telling myself
    its so hard to see and i have bad luck with fuel shut offs at the gas pump. I’ve had fuel over flow so many times its ridiculous. That probably flushed off all the fluid film every time it happened
