    I don't have any now, but I can get some before we meet up. You just need a tube of it? 2?

    Let's shoot for sometime next week.

    Im not sure if they make that stuff in a tube, but I know TRS sells them as a drop in strip that you just heat up and then distribute in the channel on the light housing.

    because it's small, amazingly efficient, and pretty cheap to buy ;)

    only tickets for oozing estrogen all over the road?

    depends on which way you look at it...

    The Miata was small, needed a lot of work, and 21 years old, and an automatic (so not as fun as it could have been to drive) and I cant fit the kid or dog in the car, and the trunk fits roughly 1 pack of gum before it's full.

    I'm spending roughly $400 a month driving the Tacoma to work since the Miata has needed some repairs before it would be 100% reliable to daily drive my 90mile round trip commute.

    I sold the Miata as is for $4,000... the Prius I'm going to look at, I got the guy down to $3500, it's a 2006, 100% reliable to drive , 10 years newer, and will cost about $75 a month total in fuel to drive back and forth to work (saving me $325 a month *which also equates to more Tacoma parts!*), and it's a 4 door hatchback so I can put the wife, kid, and dog in it AND groceries and / or dead hookers in the back cargo area


    I'll still likely put a couple decals on it:

    "Nice Prius"
    - No one Ever

    Is this a hybrid where it has the lipo battery in it? If so, that thing might be on its last leg as they typically start to go after 8 years. That could be the reason why its also so cheap.

    I've been doing a lot of research on them and the batteries seem to be lasting at least 200k miles (which I can manage)
