Call me poor but I have the cheapest old skool Kenmore washer and dryer in my house and they get the job done and very reliable 6 years on. Nothing like what my friends have with all the Samsung fancy LCD panels and shit that could literally explode. All they get is "Load Error" flashing in their faces after just 3 years LMFAO!

What to do? ....... hell, I don't know!


In our family, the man decides on what kind of new car to buy.

Then the woman gets to decide which one she wants to drive, the old one or the new one.

Chew on that fer ah spell .....

Found a pristine condition AP1 with 50k on the clock for only 17k. IIRC, it also had a hardtop :o

Really wanted it but then.. kinda found the FRS by accident
I would be in an s2000 if I didn't need back seats.

Just make sure you get all the bits and pieces that go with the kit and not just the blower, including tuning solution. I think that kit uses EcuTek, so make sure it's unmarried from his car. And I would really want to know why he's selling it. Did it trash his engine? He needs money for an upcoming kid?

I mean uh.. No.. don't buy it...

I still want one....


In other news, my badge holder kinda committed suicide. The metal band contractor thingy, to be exact. It knows the end of my employment is near and seemingly "left the building" early.

Been a while since I've bought anything for the car. Have been considering some odds and ends purchases, but every time I add stuff that I've been wanting for a while, I just say "nah". I just don't drive the car enough for it to even matter right now.

I'm just starting to save money for furniture when I move out of my parent's place end of August. Sucks that I'm going to have to pay for two parking spaces, and that the car is going to sit in the apartment parking garage not moving for the entire time I'm gone because my girlfriend doesn't have a license. At least when the car is at my parent's place, my dad rips it around town and to work, not to mention, I always come home to a full tank of gas, since he's such a class act.

At the dealer getting the TSB done for the new fuel pump that doesn't chirp.

Service guy comes out and says: "it's gonna be an extra 20 min, the tech cracked the high pressure fuel line and fuel sprayed everywhere. Gonna take some time for it to dry out and he got pretty covered in fluid."

Here's to hoping I don't have a bunch of gas left in the engine bay and my car goes up in flames when I start it.....

On the plus side, your car goes up in flames and you can get a new car
