Hey Connecticut, our everything hurts

Especially humourous that it was heard in the ladies commode

 

From what I hear the lady's rooms are even worse than men's rooms. IDK how.

 

Spent a couple hours Fluffin'n'Buffin.
Not too bad for a 1986 paint job. Showing it's age with blems and it's share of rock chips.
Good enough for me. It ain't a trailer queen.
Hitting the show in Newtown tomorrow.
Supposed to be nice tomorrow, should be beaucoup participants rolling in.

 

Having done building maintainence, I could regale you with some tales of women's restrooms..and some men's restrooms too. Office buildings, not like it's a gas station even.

 

Real nice day today.
Went to Bishop's Orchard in Guilford.
Met my sister and niece there. We went in separate cars.

Upon leaving, my nieces cars brake pedal went to the floor. Now I have to replace a brake hose tomorrow

 

Boat was pulled today and is now home. I’m beat.

 

Prius resurrection defeated me today. CEL back on in the Tundra. Defeated I browsed my local dealer lot Found 1 Taco on the lot with a long bed (6'?).
2017, 101k miles, cloth seats. I'll ignore the sunroof.

New truck on the lot has a sticker of $35k
this truck is listed online at asking of $32.5

WTF?

 

Morning everyone.

Happy Sunday.

 

Since that post I went on Carfax, looked around for Taco's. 4x4, 6'bed, 4door. They're all listing at 32k plus, & all around 100k, but mileage seems to be mostly irrelevant in the pricing.

I'm still dazed at spending 35-40k $ for a 100k mile vehicle, but the timing is good for me to learn this lesson.
I'm negotiating salary for a new job. I was ready to go in on Monday & say yes. Now I know I have to hold out for more. I have to sell them they're out of touch of current costs of living. A c-suite exec. should be able to afford to buy a used 100k mile vehicle.

Maybe I'm officially old. I recall earning $30k was making big money. Gotta keep up!

Happy Sunday all.

 

Great car show in Newtown today and the weather cooperated as well.
450 cars at noon when I left with cars still rolling in.
Nova ran like a bear.


getting there was half the fun...

 

Went to Caffeine & Carburetors today, only happens a few times a year but can't recommend it enough

 

Made it to Wapping Fair last night in time to see the tractor pulls while eating carnival dinner lol. Great times and always hilarious to listen to the crowd.


Best part of late summer in New England is the start of fair season. Terrible carnival food, beer, demolition derbies, and tractor pulls. Makes for a fun weekend for the next 5 weeks. Its Carhartt and Camo time!
Great date night with the wife lol.

 

You mean the one in New Canaan?

 

Yessir, the one in New Canaan. This one was based in downtown, the one next month is in Waveny Park.

Morning everyone.

Happy Monday.

 

Replaced that brake hose yesterday. Took about half an hour.

It was split, only saw that on real old cars. This was a 2015 Chrysler.

 

Morning Connecticut

 

Finally dropping off the truck later today, to get the stupid ABS light having come back on checked out.

FML

 

Wait, this never got fixed?

Good luck this time around!
