Spent that on an Xterra in 2006 lol

Suspension coil spring? That's crazy. Why are removing the H pipe?

RockAuto discount code if anyone happens to be ordering in the next month.

Good God man! You must drink pure adrenaline for breakfast. Would be hard to pass up owning a big block split window for at least a minute.

I’d need a clipper job to the body once a month with my woolly genetics... Honestly, half the house would be paid for with in-state tuition. If one of us could become a state resident. Optimistically would become her residence once she is allowed to move out of the dorm. So wouldn’t be throwing the money from her living quarters away. I have spoke strongly in the past about how I feel about you spending time with your daughter. Especially in your situation. That would be great if she came to live with you at some point!

I forget Land Cruiser is even made by Toyota. Especially when I see the older ones. Haha We test drove Every Ford they could throw at us at the dealership when shopping. I would of taken the explorer.

Honestly the tundra is top of my list of trucks I’d buy, if not going for sheer brute force. That or a f150. Brother just bought a 2013 with the ecoboost. The short test drive I took I enjoyed.

The boring utilitarian side of it didn’t bother me. And I really wanted to love it but just could not get over the steering. I have no doubt they run forever. The neighbors late 90s truck has 750K on the clock.

Same goes for GM. After watching friends have to go through the lemon law just to get rid of a new car.

I guess I missed the beginning of the conversation. What is the reason you were looking to change things up Sean?

I don’t know how the fuck Toyota makes it on any list. Other than maybe engine longevity with proper maintenance. Which goes for most cars nowadays. The ‘19 forerunner rental I drove had hideous steering. Very vague and ridiculously large turning radius. Interior was laid out poorly as well. The Audi SUV I had before was way more fun to drive. Shit even enjoyed the last couple Nissan rogue’s I’ve had more. Not to mention over half the accessories don’t work in any I have ever gotten in that are 10 years old/150 thousand miles. Even my shitty Nissan tops that.

Absolutely phenomenal work!!! Double points for doing it in an apartment. Thanks for posting so many pics. The dash pods came out killer. I’m sure the pictures make them look more obtrusive than they are. Can only imagine how good they sound! Keep the pics coming!!

Woot woot to progress! Love the Old Iron!! Sadly the most recent pics will not load for me. Tried on the phone and computer as well. ):

Happy birthday puppy!

No love for Mercedes or Volvo?

Amused you have not mentioned Range Rover Sean. I assume it is the lack luster of power plants? Or just that they’re overpriced in general? Honestly not too familiar with them, but I assume they’re up there with a Beamer on the technical end.

Thanks for the solace Brother. Has me listening to country music this morning. It’s rough.

I only post pics elsewhere and am a hermit otherwise. Felt good to have somewhere to spill the emotion. Thanks again.

Thanks buddy. Found some Zantac and got some food down. I’m super proud of her. Just didn’t think it would hit me that hard. meanwhile, six hour delay at DFW. Should make it home by midnight.

Well made it till after we had left at least. Fuck. Just spent the last hour falling a part. Im not going to be able to eat today, my heart aches so fucking bad. Nothing could of prepared me for this moment. Enjoy every minute with them kids. Yes I’m talking to you Ryan, Aaron, Sean.

Dealing with emotional crying women this morning. Can tell it’s going to be a rough one leaving our baby in Oxford today.

Guess I should say clients. McKeever is the most recent one from a couple weeks ago. Have a good friend from Duluth. Says his grampa has owned a bank there for decades. Last name Cox iirc.

Speaking of cost fluctuations. The hotel I’m in this week is $200 a night. I stayed in the same hotel six weeks ago and was only $100. And Is $400 a night in five weeks, which is the weekend of the first home game. Thinking it may be cost effective to buy a condo/small house to flip when all is said and done.

I’d have to go clean shaved if I lived somewhere this humid. Have the uncontrollable urge to shave as soon as I get here.

The other plus on the jeep Sean, that you may not of thought of. The backseat is super roomy, comfortable, reclines and has its own climate control. The boys would love it.
