  1. That's okay. No worries just yet. Text or call my cell. Let's make this happen. We can split 1,000 rounds. I prefer 556 62 grain if you can do that. 614-795-4907 cell -tim
  2. Had one. Loved it. REVS29K was my plate. Lacks boost though and once you have it, you'll want that or a V8. In a Sky I could do either or both :gabe: I do miss having a top down option and RWD. I'm close....the hatch...nice and the ability to put the wife and kids in it does make the MS3 nice because it offers a replacement should Satin's Chariot, our Minivan is out of service or what not. That's about the strongest opposition I have to something like the Sky. The other option is completely upgrading the suspension of the MS3 and making it more fun handling wise. Handles okay but still way to floaty and doesn't settle anywhere near what it should. Point it and it will go though. Won't satisfy drop-top love or lust for RWD but it would be cheaper and perhaps invoke a couple more years of interest. FWD with the power is still an issue but one I may have to live with for now. Currently, I just live with the fact that the first two gears are useless. Perhaps after a suspension upgrade I'd put the downpipe and new Fuel Pump to kick up the potential a bit more and make the bottom end of 3rd useless too :no:
  3. I've been kicking around the idea of selling the MS3 and picking up a fun little Saturn Sky. Drove a buddies redline yesterday and it was a damn fun ride and I've liked them since the onset. Too bad they are gone. Thoughts on reliability and being a Saturn and all? Not a fan of the appearance of the solstice really.
  4. Never put money down in the form of a Cap-Cost Reduction. The idea there is simply to lower your monthly by essentially paying a portion of the Captial Expense down up-front. Not a great move. Keep the money in your pocket as the whole idea of a lease is to pay for only what the depreciation you use is. If you trade or sell or exit your lease early, you won't get that cost reduction down payment back. As already noted, most leases require/build in gap insurance thus if you total the car, you lose the cap cost reduction too. Leasing is about options and minimizing risks. If the payments are out of ones range doing it this way, they are looking at a car they can't afford or is out of their budget.
  5. ^^ some programs are national, some are regional. The far west coast and far east coast have tended to have the majority of different programs vs other parts of the country.
  6. I grew up in the biz. Happy to help explain the process and how leases work if it comes to that. Overall though, keep in mind advertised prices have a lot of fine print and are essentially starting points. Case in point, the new MBZ starts at $29k but for that money it's a MBZ you'd never own. Priced realisitcally with decent equipment it's way more. Leasing rule #1 NEVER put money down. Call me it's easier to explain. Rule #2, never talk payments. Work the deal first. Chat later.
  7. ^^ This. Need to obtain proof the employer paid your coverage.
  8. WOW! What was the cause? Thread needs a new title to match Wag's other one. When things go wrong at 0 MPH
  9. Go to Franklin BBQ in Austin and have his Brisket. You'll want to move to TX. Salt and pepper and smoke until it is tender. Very simple recipe yet people are lining out the door for this simple made brisket.
  10. What are you going to offer him Clay? Trailer too? You know you want 'em.
  11. Time to get the trim on our home painted and I'm not interested in doing it. Looking for a referral from CR Members. Can be a friend or relative or one of you, but I would like solid experience and true references, not a friend of your sisters boyfriends step mom, etc... Feel free to reply or PM. Thanks all Tim
  12. Good to know. Will be through my handguns.
  13. Give Ford props for fun economy for sure.
  14. Just placed an order for a 1,000 FMJ 9mm We'll see how this stuff performs.
  15. I have. My neighbor does it as he has a huge collection of guns and always in some type of competition. Will be talking with him and reviewing his set up.
  16. TurboRust has exceeded their stored private messages quota and cannot accept further messages until they clear some space. PM me when you're clear...
  17. again, done deal on 9mm when you make a buy.
  18. done deal when you do. you know what I'm looking for. thanks joe.
  19. Let me know if you're interested in splitting a larger purchase. I'm open to buying 500+ rounds but since I'm just getting into AR's with Joe, I'm going to start with 500 rounds or so for now. Putting this out there in case others are looking to buy soon. Thanks.
  20. Looking to pick up 500-1000 soon. Figured I'd ask here who may know where the best deals are currently. Thanks for the insight on what you've seen.

    Pizza Cucinova

    Good place. Spin off from owners of Sabarro IIRC. I go to there for lunch when I work at our Easton office.
  22. 5hrs of waiting but it was well worth it. 1 Rack was a little more moist than the other but I think it's due to it being positioned on the lower rack. Next time I'll squeeze them all on same upper rack and perhaps keep the heat down just a bit more as at the end I let it creep up to 230* vs the 200-220 range I was at earlier. The situation there was the day started out breezy and cool and as the winds dropped and temps outside rose, I was busy playing football with my son and forgot to adjust the settings. I also didn't baste them during the last hour either. All were damn good though. http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj84/crms3er/20140503_181820copyweb_zps6e13ac2f.jpg http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj84/crms3er/20140503_181830copyweb_zps303e6e3b.jpg http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj84/crms3er/20140503_182207web_zps75d7f9fd.jpg
