* would be granted further breaks for being deemed an agricultural designated area

* marketing advantages such as "locally grown", "all natural", "GMO free", "non-hydroponically grown" , just to name a few

Nope, I didn't just fall off the pumpkin wagon here in Puyallup ......

Free range may actually be a big attraction for the hipsters.

Good brainstorming ....... I will add "free range" along with "organically grown" ...... I love it when a good marketing plan comes together ...... (did someone already use that .. ??).

Maybe it's a conspiracy between the emissions fixing shops and the manufacturer ..... they put a little timer in the ECU ......

How many times have you told that story though? 3 years? Is it because you didnt knock on wood?

Your drives will(should) come with their own. I've probably got at least a dozen of them now

I guess we'll see. If they don't, I'm not too upset, I spent about 2/3 of what I thought I was going to on drives, so I'm not overly concerned on if they do or don't, as the cables are only a few bucks.

Got a 1TB HDD for $60, and a 256GB SSD for $80.
