We need a Garage/Shop thread! (or reloading room as I do that in there now too)

Great looking building.
I vote for a Garage/Shop Thread!
Great Kazoo is building one in AZ and others have built some.
It would be great to have a dedicated space to daydream!

I like vehicles. Know a bit about them. Always wanted to make my own but doubt I'll ever have the garage space... not until each of my beautiful outbuildings is bigger than the house... that's a while off, if ever... but a girl can dream to have a dedicated building for each speciality workshop, riiight?

Um...courtesy link to the new thread...

Like turn 1 in to the meat processing & curing shed...

When I quickly read that the first time I thought it said "cursing shed". I was thinking, "That sounds like my garage."

I told my wife that for years and she thought I was being crazy or controlling. Then there was an accident where a girl was messed up badly for life because she had he feet on the dash when an accident happened and my wife no longer puts her feet on the dash. Crazy how I tell her these things for years and she doesn't believe it until she sees it for herself. I'm just thankful it wasn't her it happened to because that would suck.

Yes, I've had that exact conversation.

I went to a dealership today to pickup my mothers vehicle after airbag recall. I had good 5 min looking at the AMG GT 63S at the center of hallway, while my kid was at the restroom.

After that, I realize how poor I was.

So, how often do you guys clean the inside of your windshield?

I was driving in the dark in the rain in rush hour traffic yesterday. Visibility that was already impeded by these conditions was made worse by the haze on the inside of my windshield.

Pretty sure I just cleaned that sucker like five or six years ago.

Thread WIN. lol.

Just be happy that had you bought an AMG GT 63S, you'd be poor from the insane depreciation and long-term ownership costs. I'd recommend to anyone that wants a German/Austrian import, lease it.

My new 2019 Ram 1500 is a 'mild hybrid'. "Green Truck of the Year". Yeah, it's a Hemi.

Check out the 48v hybridization in the auto industry.

A few friends and I are joining a race in September. 250-300 miles, primarily offroad, in a $500 vehicle. Should be fun.

Sounds like a blast...kind of a twist on the Lemons series

I didn't read the entire thing, but the concept looks similar to MGU-K in fia.
