Sup fellas

 

Howdy Bill.

 

Lookin at full size trucks, may be able to get out of my lease a year early and still make 2-4K; used market is unreal right now.

 

That doesn't sound too bad.
Tundra?

 

looking at them but low mileage 17-19 crew max are still in the mid to high 40s. And the bed is only 5.5’

When did trucks get so fucking expensive?

 

Jeez. I always thought 40-50k was on the higher end for a new truck. e.g. Silverado/GMC types

 

40-50 is a very basic full size truck. F150 ranges from 30-80, rams are mid 50s, gmc/Chevy are 50-60.

how can people stomach $700-800 car payments?

 

That's ridiculous.
When I bought my Tacoma, I remember drooling over some new Silverados.
Guy came out and asked if I wanted a test drive, I laughed and said no, they're way out of my price range. That was a $45k truck. (He let me test drive it anyway. It was niiice.)

If I'm going to pay that much, I'm gonna go buy me a Tesla or something nice.

 

I think I might be dying. Internet says it's either a stroke or an visual migraine.
Guess it was fun while it lasted. Nice knowin ya.

 

I had one of those at my last job due to too many energy drinks; have had migraines since but have been under control with a multi use BP medication. Felt like a railroad spike going through my left eye and I couldn’t talk right. I would think of a word and couldn’t pronounce it.

 

I used to have bad migraines when I was younger. Would have to get picked up from school and just go hide in a dark room all day.
This just has my vision being funny, makes it hard to read. No real pain or anything... yet.

 

I have an as-needed medication to take if I feel one coming on or I’m down for several hours; it’s called sumatriptan. Brand name is imitrex.

 

I've just got some Ibuprofen in my bag.

 

Dura tracs 280 off this weekend...hmmmm

 

Need to get the wife new tires before winter starts being a thing.
Waiting to see if I can get some deals at Discount Tire on some Michelin Defender or Goodyear Assurance types.
Seem to be all-seasons that do well enough in the winter.

 

we have and love the Michelin defenders on the Venza; damn things all said and done were around $1100 installed since the assholes at Toyota put 19” wheels on a crossover.

 

Jesus. Her Pilot needs 235/70R16. Would be $700-800 right now depending if I got the certificates or not. Hoping I can catch a sale this month or next month. Might just bite the bullet though and pay full price, she's been needing new tires for a while. Idk where her tread is at now though.

EDIT: Looks like that's with a 10% discount on Michelin from Discount Tire's Labour Day thing.
