Exactly. I plan on using my tax return on myself for once and getting my car back off its last legs. Getting all the body work done as well as a brand new paint job for a little over 1500..... it would cost me close to 8k if it were in an actual body shop. Then its time for an engine and tranny rebuild if I can't find a low mileage used transmission. I plan on getting a brand new engine and transmission eventually
 


Re: Random Thought Thread 2.0

look all im saying is why struggle when u dont have to. my ciera got me through 3 years and i sold it is the only reason it wasnt more. only thing i ever had to do to it was an alternator. literally. oil changes and an alternator. i loved that car. got 30 mpg. it wasnt pretty. but it was dependable. and i wasnt struggling. do what u want kolton, its your life. make it by your choices. im merely putting another perspective out there. i personally beleive in breathing room and low stress levels. 1200 a month isnt a whole lot. not really. and dude, a miata? lol

Why? It's a freakin 95 with a turdy-one hundred.

That's like taking taco bell diarrhea and polishing it.

Re: Random Thought Thread 2.0

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

My local BP gas station that carrys my 93 pump gas is/was being bought out by another company.

I am unsure as to what the place is called but I think its called Circle K Gas Station???

Anyone ever heard of them? Its the first time I've heard of it, and I think they partner with Shell??

Here is a picture as to what I think the new symbol on the building was like. I might be wrong still, I havent gon into ask yet.

Re: Random Thought Thread 2.0

LOL never seen one bro?? We have them every where down here. It's a fine gas station, my local ones carry 93 as well.

I don't have qwik trips and speedway and all those other things yall yankees have. Go figure.

Have a good eye doctor check your vision. Moreso the amount of light getting into your eye and glare from your lens. This is common enough and your lens can bounce the light around, make you very light sensitive.

i have astigmatism and it makes me very very light sensitive. cant open my eyes on a cloudless day around white concrete or sand. im thinking about this too.
 
Re: Random Thought Thread 2.0

I had the astig etc etc. Was only getting 45% in, but the rest bounces around in the lens and kills you.

Jayke..10's don't count, man up.

Helped neighbor (mother) diagnose a bad blower resistor in her Trailblazer. Told her it was the more expensive automatic controls. Wouldn't believe me, finally we bought the part. Came in yesterday while I was at the track with G8 guy. (aka not gonna build Intrigue98, lol)
This morning texts start flying:

Her: Driverside headlight out, lights on my car always burning out (yeah.. two tails and a headlight since 2006..brutal lol)
Me: I've seen this problem before
Me: Wanna know the problem?
Her: Automatic headlights?
Me: No problem is between seat and steering wheel.
Her: I hope we can do my part tonight and my headlight thank you (thank you.. wow.. that's a new one)
Me: Yes we can. Right after you clean my house (Keep in mind I provide and cook dinner usually about 3 times a week for her and the kids. She can't cook)
Her: Forget I ask you tit for tat
Me: Car work seems so one sided in our relationship. We both have skill...why not trade off?
Me: I'd like to clean..but will be working on your car. Both things can be done at once.
Her: Eff that. If you had to do a motor or transmission maybe. Not head light (WTF, my place is cleaner than her house)
Me: Motor or trans is about 10+ hours of hard labor. Eff that (thinking in terms of her trailblazer..it's really more like 20+)
Me: NP I'll clean my own home =0)
Me: See the funny part of this is, I know how to clean my house.
Her: Good cleam mine while you are at it.
Me: Sorry...I'll be working on my own car after the house is set. =0) Cause I know how to =0P

When she arrives tonight..I'll be too busy cleaning my place. Let's see how her fixing her own car works out. It's about time I'm appreciated!

GT's are 3.29's
GTP's are 2.93's
Bonnevilles came as 2.86 gas mileage in your face, 2.93's which my NA Regal is running, and 3.05's.
