    4 years and not one issue. Shit is TOUGH. It's a lot of effort getting down, but it's worth it.

    Yeah, I've got this Sherwin Williams industrial level epoxy coating on mine. I love it so far, but feel the need to keep it clean.

    Same. But I'll walk into my garage barefoot without a care.

    That's exactly why I didn't do that at my place. It's a garage. A lot of my neighbors did, and the funny thing is that the overwhelming majority of them don't even own a wrench.

    You'll be fine. As soon as I got out of Austin yesterday, on the way down to Katy, stations were good.

    I donated some money the other day to a shelter in your neck o' the woods; K9Care in Alvin. They were taking in a lot of animals, and needed a hand up.

    I stained up our last garage pretty bad...oops. None of my wrenches are big enough for auto repair, though. Well, that's not true. But I don't work on autos.

    I'm thinking more for living space. I like the brighter colors unless I can find a good bright stain.

    A bunch of stations near to me have started getting gas. I topped up from half a tank just because I was there, and HEB was $.30 cheaper than everyone else around here.

    Yeah, @CarmenSanDiego, you're going to be fine if you come up for C&C. We'll make a point to save you some bacon ends and tacos.

    Maybe. We'll try. :D

    So mowing is off so i looked online for gas. Right near me has fuel... Turned out only 93 for over $3... Needless to say I bought a 12 pack and am home, no yard work, no gas and commencing drinking. :D

    Took a look at my Texas Toyota Coalition sticker...and it was in better shape than I first thought so I put it on. The Chad will be delirious.

    I'll wash and wax her up on Saturday and we'll be ready for Cars and Coffee!
