    No worries bro. Not like you went in there to purposely say "screw you, I do what I want," like as suggested here..

    I have a retail store here in Fort Worth, I don't mind people taking photos at all, but it does annoy me a little when people snap 20 photos and don't ask first. We have some really cool displays, new and vintage stuff. All in all people taking photos should cause interest, I only hope they put it on Instagram. @wdurablegoods

    I've got two pictures in the "Car Porn" section you'll be interested in... 1960 Buick Invicta wagon owned by the owner of an antique shop. One of his specialties is gutting antique tube radios, installing modern speakers, and retrofitting them with an iPod AUX input. The Buick appears to have the original AM radio, but he gutted it, turned it into an AM/FM radio, and added an AUX input!

    So much for free speech. Wish I'd seen that other sticker you deleted.

    Basically, what it is...

    I live in a very "left" area. I paid $10 for that magnet, custom made, commercial grade materials, from Bob Shaw Signs. I don't some snowflake to steal it, or even worse, vandalize my truck.

    In June 2016, I dropped my 2015 MacBook Pro on my other laptop, a 2013 HP I use primarily for storing the 100K+ pictures of Chevy and GMC trucks I've taken since 2012...

    The Mac set me back about two grand, and was barely over a year old at the time. It was not damaged at all!

    The HP was not so lucky (June 8, 2016):

    IMG_2287.jpg


    I thought my trusty HP was done for. My Geek Squad/Black Tie "Shit Happens" warranty was long-expired. I brought it to Blake, the owner of Dtown Tech, with the intention of transferring my beloved GM truck photo collection to an external hard drive. Blake told me he had a new screen in the back that would fit my laptop and he could install it while I watched for $110.

    Blake literally installed a new screen in my 2½-year old laptop that I was about to recycle in less than 5 minutes, right there at the front counter, while I watched!

    Here's a picture taken today (March 12, 2017):

    Technically they don't have to post that, as it is a state law.

    Look at the area circled in red. That little bit of damage to the right side of my front bumper is the result of bumping the left rear corner of a parked 2012 Mini Cooper while parallel parking. The Mini had $1,200 in damage! By the way, I just realized this picture is from somewhere between July 29 and August 5 based on that presence of that bumper damage...

    I hit the Mini in late July, and exactly a week later I rear-ended a Mustang at like 5 MPH. The bumper obviously does not have the damage from the Mustang yet, so it is obviously before August 5th! I'm also now on my second bumper since this picture was taken:

    When my parents bought the new house last year, I officially "christened" the garage when I became the first family member to park their vehicle in it!

    This is what my truck looked like that night. I took this picture with my iPhone earlier that day. Also got photo-bombed by a fellow 2nd gen owner...
