My problem with the classifieds is unless I know I am intending to buy that exact part already, I have to go research the part and by the time I figure out I want it, it's gone. Kicking myself for missing the pruning header a while back lol.

Hmmm... do I need sti bushings?... Are they stx-legal?... So many questions.

Yes. It was an awesome deal. The one day I don't go look at new posts, this happens. Oh well... something else will come up.

Last week mom had a bowl of candy corn and cashews. Not a bad combo.

I keep saying if battery tech improves, everything on the planet will. From cell phones to computers to modes of transportation.
