  1. i thought that's what those cars sold for anyways. he won't get it.
  2. we should chip in, and get a membership to that website---kind of like watching a car wreck, you just can't turn away.
  3. damn, i wish i was back in columbus. nowhere at all to run here, no one with fast cars, no real car scene. just idiots who rev at me with lifted hill-billy pickups. carry on
  4. they're putting me at risk for not getting paid to take care of them. it says in your profile that you're an engineer. do you work for free?? its fine if you can afford to pay out of pocket for medical care--if you cannot, you should have health insurance--plain and simple. you don't have to have auto insurance--if you can't afford it, then you don't buy a car. you take the bus.
  5. i don't 'fuck' anyone you stupid cocksucker. i'm paid to do what i spent the better part of 10 years after college learning how to do. if you don't like it, eat a fat dick. if a patient doesn't have money, we still fix them, and don't get paid for it. do you ever do work for free?? people spend hundreds per month for car insurance but won't buy health insurance. if you truly have an ulcer, they are not to be taken lightly. bite the bullet and go to an e.r. or get into a private physician's office asap. or you can call mt. carmel and get into their uninsured medical clinic.
  6. nuts. i think i've seen a vid of that car crushing a turbo fox on the highway
  7. enjoy it. my buddy has a bone stock '05 V, and haul's his kids everywhere in it. they are great cars.
  8. looks like your average 'survivor' foxbody
  9. keep it mild, very mild, would be my advice. this is not your 'fast car' so don't try to make it that way. its tempting to mod the piss out of my GTO, but there's no point. right now, i can drive it anywhere, anytime, any distance with absolutely no worries--with roughly 430-440hp. my wife can even drive it (when we are lucky enough to get a sitter, and i want to drink at dinner). make a car too loud, too harsh, or too 'finnicky', and it will no longer be a fun everyday car.
  10. i just bought that same stang, and one of the fj cruisers for my girls--just waiting for spring. i will be doing the 24volt mod once i'm sure they can handle the power. right now they have 2 of the smaller 6volt power wheels---that i modded to 12 volts.
  11. hope he has a speedy recovery.

    you can try going to the chiropracter. if they can help, great. if not, and you need to know a good spine surgeon in columbus---let me know, and i'll refer you to one
  13. its a lot bigger than our current rental, and about 500 sqft larger than our previous one in columbus.
  14. that was great. he got spit out of that car like a cannon
  15. thanks again guys. the shop will definitely see usage. at the very least i'll be able to do car work and wash my cars througout the winter here.
  16. basement is a walkout, so the square footage counts, and its just under 4500. and i'm about 30 minutes from road america, and an hour away from wisc. internatl raceway
  17. we originally planned on building a house on lake michigan--we even had a lot. i passed on the lot for now--just not ready to build a house, and not sure if i even want to live on the lake--its about 10 degrees cooler there year-round
  18. honestly, there's not a great selection of houses where i live. we got kind of lucky with this one. we quickly noticed that the seller was very recently divorced, and played that to our advantage. i honestly feel a little bad for puting the screws to him a bit, but that house would have taken over a year to sell in the current market, and he sold it in 3 months. we thought about building, but my wife couldn't wait, and i couldn't deal with the stress of building a house right now in my life.
  19. thanks guys. we're pumped about it. the lot is just under 2.5 acres, and has a small creek in the back. the previous owner repaired heavy machinery in the shop--its dirty as hell. there are two 220 outlets that are finished, and 3 more 220's that need a breaker added, but are wired up and just have a 'block-off' plate at the wall. multiple other outlets have wiring going to the box, but just need a breaker, and the 'block-off' plate removed at the wall---there are already plenty of outlets, but the previous owner saw the need for an outlet every 4 feet. the shop is wired for speakers, cable, internet in the office, and fully insulated throughout. the rest of the house is o.k. too.
  20. just closed this friday. we've been renting for the past two years, and its good to finally own a house again. we've been cramped in a tiny 2 bedroom ranch with our family of 5 for the past 8 months. house is going to get some remodeling to the kitchen, master bath, etc etc. http://img39.imageshack.us/img39/525/dsc00890e.jpg basement is completely finished with a movie theater, large playroom, full bath, large in-law suite. http://img199.imageshack.us/img199/9775/dsc00877vr.jpg full bar in the basement http://img69.imageshack.us/img69/3031/dsc00894v.jpg here's the best part---the detached shop, separate from the 3 car garage. shop is 36' X 50'. has a 200amp box, and is plumbed for compressed air. large gas heater, 12' X 12' office, 12' X12' separate garage in the back for lawn equipment and the compressor. the door is 12' wide, 12' high. the interior is getting painted, all new lighthing, and the floor painted. it will be nice having all my shit in one place http://img685.imageshack.us/img685/9767/dsc00922gf.jpg http://img109.imageshack.us/img109/1175/dsc00923u.jpg http://img10.imageshack.us/img10/796/dsc00932hr.jpg http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/4223/dsc00907jf.jpg
  21. is it bad that i don't know what the fuck a canard is??
  22. cherokee or trailblazer would be my vote. someone mentioned rav-4---seriously?? in-laws have a rav-4 and there's a class-action lawsuit regarding failing transmissions in those pieces of shit. a denali would also be up there on the list, but they're big.
