I always keep the freezer stocked and at minimum a couple cases of water. I also fill a tub at the first sign there might be trouble.

That’s cause you’re not a dumbass.

IQ and or financial stability requirements for breeding would go a long way in this world.

Wow, you finally got rid of it huh? I read you auctioned it off, no reserve I take it?

Well, at least now you can begin to recoup any losses and bounce back.

Cleaning it out today. We did find a Rolex Submariner watch and a pile of cash hidden away.

Think it was from the Hindu's we rented to last summer. They are about the only ones with that kind of money. No one has asked if we found anything.

Finders keepers. Unless you found over $10k, then Uncle Sam gets a bite.

I would only do solid mounts in a track car or very limited street use car imo.

Also, I’ve always been under the impression that the motor and transmission mounts should always match, ie all solid or all poly etc.

Able to jump up on the couch, walk on steps to get outside, etc. Doesn't look like he is in any kind of pain. We were able to move his hind quarters in all directions without so much as a sigh from him. So that's good.

Literally as I typed this.... he got up, stretched his legs while looking at me with a judgmental tone, and wondered away. Freaking animals.....

. Our senior pup gets a shot once a month in his hip to help him out, it seems do be doing a good job since he’s more feisty again. It always hurts my heart when I see dogs (or most animals) in pain.

I turned it back into the bank. Own another 15 yrs on it. $1,000 a month. $40,000 upside down on it. I can't keep up with the repairs. Every 7 yrs, $3,600+ in tires, 6 batteries at $800 a shot. The rear A/C needs replaced. Found 3 areas on the roof that need repair, $3,000. Spent $9,000 on the motor last year. The kitchen roof vent needs replaced, $600. Just fixed the hot water tank, $120. $800 for a roadside fan belt. Front axle wheel bearing seals, $1,200. $1,200 for a tow. Chit adds up.

Uncle Sam doesn't know how much I found. Never will.

Omg, it makes owning a boat sound not so bad.

I’m truly sorry you’re taking this $$ hit, I’d be vomiting if I were you right about now.

Th3 only bright side is at least there’s a light at the end of the tunnel now.
