    Push button start sucks ass.
    A pain in the ass if something goes wrong.
    Just more tech do random people will be able to shut your vehicle off at anytime.
    FYI
    When you start a push button Prius, it takes like 20 something decisive actions in the car ( I was told at one of my last training weeks) for it to start. You unlock the car wrong or jam the steering wheel while parking, it won’t start. Oh happy day…

    I'm going for an oil change for the 911 this morning. 9.5 quarts of 5-40 full synthetic, an overpriced filter and labor.

    But at least the well guys just showed up so I've got that going for me...

    Just had a dude come up on my passenger window pressing his hand and face in to see through the tinted glass, knocking, and being a fuckin weirdo. I snapped at him to gtf away from my truck.. turns out hes our customer so thats how today is gonna go. I just watched the owners of a car two back from me look under because their cats are cut and gone. For the locals to give an idea why im on edge- the job is in Lewiston. :rofl:

    Talk about polishing a turd... well done. Now if only they could return that tile to the diner it was stolen out of.

    Jesus o_O

    I will say there's a house down the road that is very similar to mine being rented for $1800. My mortgage is $600 less than that o_O

    looks like it'll be a couple days before either of us mows...not a total loss though. Moto's to wrench on.

    upload_2024-4-23_10-15-21.png

    I agree with everything here. But, correct me if I'm wrong: are you complaining about all the complaining?

    :boink:

    You said your well pump is down 90 ft, and way from the house I assume, so that little pump needs to produce, what, 130+ feet of head? That's not an off the shelf item I wouldn't think! Hope it goes well!

    And tell me more about the 911: 9.5 qt capacity ?? What's the year/motor?

    the Dirty Lew! That would be a scary place to own a truck, I imagine those CAT's go missing early and often. Be safe.

    2014 with the 3.8...so 400hp

    Well pump is in and back to what constitutes normal at Casa de Spruce Mica.
    Going from a 4" pump to a 2.5" raised the pump price considerably
    Edit: maybe we can get you behind the wheel when we're in Indy next month :burnrubber:

    First thing I did after my racks was put cat plates across the entire bottom of my truck. They’re gonna get curb stomped by me by the time they figure out how to cut the cats out. Im working within eyeshot of my tunny. I dare a motha’

    Just shoot ‘em…… or find them guilty of theft and cut a finger off. Their choice of said finger. There choice of ax… I bet that will slow down theft a little.

    Ironic. Just this am on the local news. Eastern Maine Community College was hosting a free CAT etching clinic today so stolen ones could be identified.

    I keep buckshot 16ga shells right beside my double barrel just for this occasion. I live in a relatively good area, but occasionally the meth heads get rambunctious.
