flew too close to the sun?

I've eaten too many of them over the years. Now my body rejects them.

Those look snazzy. I wonder how awful the installation is/how the fit is, because that'd be a neat OEM+ thing.

i presume exactly the same as the installation and fit for the VW ones are.

brake pedal is bananas easy, the throttle pedal just requires a little bit of work to get the rubber pliable on the cover to slip over the pedal.

books are very very good, my dude

also, movie adaptations are very rarely ever a 1:1 transfer. The Shining, for example, is a pretty different story on-screen than on-page.

i know im just being a little stinker

Man...that was weird. I've never had anyone walk in like that and a minute later I was filling out a credit app for them. He didn't even take a look at what he's trying to buy. He just asked, do you have any jet skis? Do you finance? Then we immediately started filling out paperwork.

He doesn't even know the model he's buying. I didn't feel good about any of this. Very strange dude too. Definitely not someone at full mental capacity and he's got some physical disabilities. Kinda hoping he doesn't get approved so I don't have to deal with him.

I'm surprised he knew his social security number. He didn't know his phone number or his address off the top of his head.

Wife's ford focus has some weird cooling gremlins where it overheats but we replaced the radiator, thermostat, and water pump. Im not sure what else is left except for resealing the gasket? Coolant isnt leaking. Stupid domestic cars

Do a pressure test on the cylinders. Could be head gasket.

I gotta do a carbon clean this year, do my brakes, and replace my horn (it be sounding like a clown car).

Still cheaper than a car payment

Man I've done those things and my mk7 wasn't used.

I don't so much have a problem with my horn as much as my FMIC forced me to turn around one of the horns so it's facing back toward me. Sure wakes you up when you honk at someone

 

[dtfd]

why would you read it when theres a movie

Because the book is always better.

i am correct

I don't understand why are there only two?

What about the third one?

protip: 'protein helps you feel full' apparently does not give one an excuse to eat a sleeve of Ritz crackers with peanut butter. Cutting that as a snack/meal item seems to have had a pretty decent impact for me.

That was my dad's snack of choice!

Wait - you didn’t turn it to the side? IIRC we flipped mine and they were turned out to the side.
