    Stickers. Lots of stickers.
    I was going to get a blade fuse adapter thing to plug into the fuse box in the dash. Run it in parallel to the accessory fuse.

    This. Rules are made to keep the butt hurt away. If no one gets butt hurt by our posts does it really matter?

    That sucks Blake. Pre workout drinks can really help give you a little something to keep your mind focused and energy level up.
    Hold off on the drink for a week or 2 and just get the workouts in. Post workout protein is more important. Once you get into a routine try half a scoop of the pre workout stuff. Also be sure you are drinking lots of water all the time. Your muscles will need it to help repair.
    Eat protein, protein and more protein. Tuna, chicken, Greek yogurt, almonds and natural peanut butter are all good sources. Multiply your weight by 1.5 and that's how many grams you want when you are on a workout plan.

    Puking is a hell of a whole body exercise; but I would not recommend it as a primary workout.

    I've got one, just never able to use it around here. I usually have it on while I'm out, just scanning channels and listen to other chatter. Usually Jeeps trying to figure out the best way to get out of the parking lot.

    I don't see the problem with this.

    Now we'll have two (three when Aaron comes out). I'm bumping it up my list of stuff to get done since I have a small gift card from Christmas still.

    Who has bought a car from a private owner? What's the process like? Things I'm concerned about are getting the auto loan (since it won't be through a dealer I have no idea how to do it) and also the title exchange/transfer of ownership. How does all that stuff work?

    If you are getting a loan from a bank for it, both of y'all have to go to the bank. The bank also needs the VIN to check for accidents and what not to make sure both of you (you & the bank) are not getting screwed. Also you could talk to the loan officer, tell them to tell the person you are buying from "hey he can only get financed for $XX,XXX amount, is that ok?" You never know, it might save you some money.

    I would look into a credit union for a loan. Usually have the best rates and only require that you open a savings account to get it with a vary low minimal deposit. As far as title the previous owner will have to sign it over to you. Hope this helps.

    I have Chase Bank. So would I just find a Chase bank in that area and the two of us go there? I'd imagine there needs to be preliminary discussions with them before I just waltz into the local branch. I'm really not worried about the interest rate as I'd plan on paying off the vehicle before the end of the year. The only reason I need the loan is that I think I may have found a vehicle that meets my specs and I found it a tad bit early...

    And that's it? I think the whole idea of a paper title is about the dumbest thing I've ever encountered. It's a piece of paper with signatures on it that claims ownership of something. You know how I sign my name when I use my credit card in the store? ____________. Because no one reads that shit and if they did they have no way of knowing what my signature is NORMALLY like. Anyway, I feel like it's a bit of an outdated practice (titles) don't you think?

    Once I have the title I just go register the car at the local DMV?

    If you finance the title goes to them, then they send you the paper work to register it.

    Also just to be clear don't for any reason say you don't care about the interest rate. They will always try to pull one over on you.

    I likely missworded that. I just mean I'm not going to be shopping around for a month looking for the lowest rate. The amount I'm financing wouldn't be all that large. I suppose I could finance all of it and then just pay 3/4 of it off right out the gates but we'll see. The most important thing in my situation is that I get a loan that has no penalty for paying it off early.
