The post whore thread.

Good to know.
The 2011 Sienna might go. Great for road trips, but man I am getting tired of the "Toyota Quality" on that one. Tires every 20k, front brakes every 25k, alignments, sqeaks, etc. Ironically the Toy Yaris is just oil changes, battery, and one set of tires in the last 100k. So we have 2x Toy cars and I have completely different feelings about them.
Go figure.
Son will get permit next month, and is pondering what car he wants, he may just get the Yaris unless he wants to buy his own beater.
Like I PMed you a while back, I am just hemoraging money this year. Maybe an AR pistol next year.

Yeah, the hemorrhaging money thing is a bummer. I know that in my case some of it is my own doing, but not all of it. Funny how you seem to get up, only to have to blow it on something you weren't counting on or expecting. Or you do eventually do something for yourself that drains it a bit, like a trip or two....or buying something a little bit selfish.

I might get banned tonight, so I just wanted to make sure that those of you who actually do read in this thread understand that I really do appreciate a great many of you. I miss a lot of folks that used to post here, it's a long list.

There are many still active on the board that don't post here anymore, why...I dunno. Still like 'em though.

If I can still post on the board, I'll not engage in any political discussions in any manner in the future. Hell, I dunno if anyone wants me posting here at all but I know I met some really cool folks from here in person as well as just in written word.

Back from a short lake vacation.

BLEW a tire on the big road. KABOOM tire while in the left lane doing 60-65 passing a slow moving semi at the bottom of Raton pass heading uphill. Took out a buncha sheet metal and stuff on the trailer, bent supports, etc. Not fun.

Four year old unused spare that made it maybe 250 miles down the road. Always kept covered and sprayed with UV protectant. Always kept properly inflated.

Fukn Chinese junk. My next rig, assuming 15" wheels, will be getting the new made in USA Goodyear Endurance N-speed rated trailer tire. perhaps if we end up in something with 16" I'll have other options. https://corporate.goodyear.com/en-US...iler_tire.html

Sorry to hear about that, Brutal. That sucks.

Ordered a couple of MGW sight tools that showed up today, so that's kinda nice.

Good luck to everyone who bought into the lottery frenzy.

It's always cool to hear when lottery winners aren't octogenarians or illegal aliens. I actually wish I was Mexican and about 90 years old, my chances would increase exponentially.

Ok just had to take a sec Before I apply for this ops job........won the lotto btw gotz us $7 towards the cause[Beer]
