I never sell cars. I blasphamize them until they super nova and explode. (Seriously though never has a car been worth in cash to someone else what it is to me running. Unless the cost of repairing it starts to outweigh the costs of just buying another one with similar mileage I'll keep running until some asshole totals it) My 1996 Saab 900 Turbo CV had 198k and going strong until some kid in an S2000 lost control trying pass me in the rain and took me out. My 2003 Subaru WRX had 148k on it before two people rear ended me on the highway after the traffic came to a sudden dead stop... Neither car had payments on them... conspiracy. Rest in pieces.

At last count I have met 102 people from here. Some for only a few seconds at the NorCal meet and some that I have spent literally weeks with. Most of my vacation time for the last 4 years has revolved around going to places where I can meet the people from the forum.
It is fun that my wife and another member's (they invited a third that declined) are planning a vacation together without the guys!

That's pretty much me as well. Once I own a car the next destination is the recycling bin.

Well, it's official. I've been onboarded to new job. Will be handing in my two weeks on Monday.

Definitely a little bit scary, but I'm looking forward to the move.

Right? I like you guys way more than 90% of people I deal with day to day.
