Not the best period for a car loan.

so you got your garage all sorted now?

I honestly think they didn't even pay attention. No idea. The fan has a remote, with a light on the remote. There's a second fixture on the fan which is just a light, and that's what goes on the 3-way. Bit of an odd setup, for sure.
Garage is mostly sorted. Car charger no longer complains, which is the important bit. Light switch is still finicky whether it works on the automated system or not. Could still be a ground issue, I'll poke around again some day.

Oh interest rates are great right now, I think he meant more from a risk perspective because who knows what the economy will do if people keep staying home for too long.

Nope. I never cared to add more power than stock power. If I wanted more than +60hp from stock power, I wouldn’t of bought it.

Shaving weight in other hand, I was looking into few cf parts.

I'm considering taking my Nuka-Cola Fallout helmet to work and wearing it in my office because I can, then claim its a COVID-19 Mask.
I had to look that up -

Go ahead, old man, you will be missed -
