Dear Lord was that an Epic thread, I still dig it up from time to time to get my lulz on...Brought to you by the one and only, CR.

One of my all-time favorite CR quotes
That can't be real :lolguy:

I've run Rotella T in all my cars since 2006. 9 second Colts and 850whp RX7s included
Yeah I literally run it in everything. From Elise to abarth. Can't go wrong with 19$ a gallon synthetic. Free shipping on Amazon

Take into consideration the neighborhoods with these pools; are there lots of kids in the area? You'll want a high-ish fence (which may or may not look shitty). Insurance may be higher due to the liability. Pools need daily care. Shit will go wrong and when it does it'll be expensive.
The backyard is rather large, and has a nice treeline around the whole property. The pool area is also fenced in.
I understand things will break, basically will treat it as a toy. My largest concern was just a crazy $400+ electricity bill from the pool alone, but it seems $100 is probably going to be on point which isn't bad at all.

Same here, I agree mostly above. I have a robot to clean and run it every other week for cleaning. Overall, not too much work. Plan to spend $300 to open the pool if you do it yourself and plan to spend around $250 to close it. Closing the pool is the real work due to blowing the water out the lines and putting antifreeze in the lines.
Don't get me wrong, we love our pool and put it in 9 years ago when the kids were young so we could get a lot of use from it.

Very nice. I'm in my 20s, so I will get plenty of use from it. Usually on the lake 3-5x a week anyways, this will be a nice option to add.
If temperature is an issue a solar cover is affordable a month and well worth the purchase. My parents had one when we where growing up and really heats the pool up. We swam all the time when it was in the 70's and the water temperature would be warmer sometimes than the air temp.Not a bad idea. It stays pretty warm here in NC, our lake water has been 90+ for a few months.

not weekly maintenance... DAILY...
the water temp assuming you aren't in the shade should be similar temps as a lake... just keep in mind a lake is a larger body of water and will hold heat better.... the pool will cool quicker on multiple cloudy cool days.... to put in perspective... with some of our crazy weather, our pool FINALLY just got over 80 degrees
Cloudy is still 85-90 here and humid......
Either way I would enjoy if it was under 80 but that would probably be at the edge of summer. Worst case I could get a heater....

We have a pool... electricity cost goes up about 100 a month, chemicals are expensive, and you are constantly cleaning it. With that being said, my girls are in it almost every night and they seem to love it. Also expect to either have it in direct sunlight (and the water will still be hard to keep warm) or invest in a pool heater which will raise the price as well...
I live in NC, our lake water is over 90 degrees all summer long... It's been 95+ daily for months here and humid.
I wouldn't mind doing that weekly services myself, my main concern was the electricity bill. I didn't want something insane like an added $400+ a month on top of the regular use.. Most people have been saying $80-100 a month, which is super cheap, zero issues with that..

I could careless if someone was flying one near or above my home. People need to lighten up.

Hard to beat the Miatas for the money.....

House hunting, and the majority of things I've been considering have rather large in-ground pools.... I've never owned one of these money pits before, so seeking some input... Basic digging online says $100 in electricity for it, and $80-100 in service? Does that sound right? Seems too cheap....

A friend of mine just got a GtR?
Yeah but most likely one that is legal here, which a 1995 is not....
-
It is a 95 skyline, didn't look super into it just had my brain turning on some options
Not legal. Avoid at all costs.

It's really common, advanced and auto zone should have it. My Esprit took the same maple syrup ha

I live here in the Charlotte area. I will ask some friends and see if they are looking for anyone.

Beautiful bike. Do you think this bike is good for beginner rider?
These are the perfect ride for a beginner if you want to spend that much on a first bike. Nothing about the 696 is intimidating

It sounds like your mother is a tough one. Keep her spirits up, it seems a positive attitude goes an incredibly long way from the experiences I've seen.

I agree with this. I really <3 my truck, and I would consider it a nice one even though its an 04. I love the space, I love being able to tow. etc etc. but I had to have my car (civic) in the shop for a week and I was so excited to get back into it. I know its not a speed machine but its just nice to drive something that is 'nimble'. The truck has nothing nimble about it.
I was ready to get my DD back even though I really love the truck.
Look in Texas, get a clean truck with some yrs on it for cheap, no rust. forgedaboutit
Oh and with that long of a commute you'll really hate it once the fuel price goes back up. Then everyone will be trying to offload their truck and yours will be tough to sell.
Please explain.
Pretty simple, if you don't have the actual need for one don't buy it. They cost more to operate, finding a place to properly work on them can be challenging, etc. Best move I ever made was selling my dually.

Diesel is a pain, if you don't need one avoid

Glad to see you're sticking with it! Congrats
I've always been in good shape, but the past year haven't worked out and lost a lot of definition, Not overweight or anything (weigh 165lbs) and also haven't cared as much about my diet. This thread made me think about that, went vegan shortly after you posted this. One of the best choices I've made.

Nope that ones still chillin. The other 911t I was suppose to pick up mid this month turned out to be a scam and I trolled the guy a bit before it got boring..
Oh.
Enjoy

Is this the 930 you were talking about?
Aka just has wide fenders like a 930?

Plus Chad McMonigal.
I NEVER tire of reading that retard's comments on their facebook.
Oh the cop who said he was going to come and kill me, and had all my info but wouldn't share it?! That guy was great. I got the FBI involved when he pulled that shit, found out he had a kid and felt bad for the douche bag.

I know Don personally, and he does great work out of his shop. But, if you have seen his house, you would not donate any money for something that will
1) be a write off
2) he can easily afford.
3) Will likely net him more business!!!!
There are many, many more things one can donate their money towards that have meaning and will impact our community. This is silly.
Exactly.
I understand it's a free country, and I could easily decide to not donate but the fact people even ask for this shit is disgusting.

I hate when people look for free hand outs. So classless
Would you buy a 92x?
