Oh yes, I finally have my precious...your DS GMT and Jason's Legend Diver. I love it when a plan comes together.SCM64 wrote:That sounds like a good plan to get you through winter. Glad to hear you are back in action and the new additions arrived safely.
Tomorrow I gotta begin haggling with the car guy, he wants WAY above KBB (like double) probably 'cause the miles are so low, but he's dreaming if he thinks I want the truck that bad.
If it's as clean as he claims, I might throw him a bit of a bone 'cause it is very close by, but I ain't gonna throw him much. It just happens to be a very clean, super-low mileage vehicle that's an almost exact match for what I have now (minus the major cancer and mechanical issues)...and it has a better motor, xfer case, etc plus all the more modern goodies my 1990 lacks...AND it's only 20 miles away. So it ends up being a plug-n-play no-brainer for me...if I get the right price.
Then we can start this whole "What new car should I get?" business all over again in February...but I think I am IN LOVE with that Challenger. I was heart-broken when they killed the Plymouth nameplate back in 2001...I was always hoping they'd resurrect the Barracuda. I drove Corvettes for years, but I just didn't feel like a Vette person...still like'em but just don't feel it right now. I also had a couple Porsches & BMWs over the years, but I am trying to spend American, if I can.
Anyway, we got the mother-in-law set up and drugged up, sleeping away, so I am off for the night. She'll be bedding down here for a few weeks which will be interesting, but you do what ya gotta do for those you love.
Just waiting for two things: (1) The first chance I get to wear my new Longines to a big Treasury meeting ('cause they all know I am a watch nut) and (2) The first chance I can sport the Divingstar on the range...so I can tell them some big BS story about how this complex timing piece will calculate my muzzle velocities.
