What did you do with your Z today II

SPOHN · 01-30-2012, 07:01 PM

Is that a trash can? I love that!

Man my hose is just old school. You just coil it up and hang it on the hose caddy that's affixed to the side of the garage. You gotta remember, I haven't quite reached baller status like you have my friend!

those reels aren't that expensive.

im not a huge fan of the auto-wind or the electric wind types. mine is the good ol' hand crank type using a high capacity kink free rubber hose (griot's sells the hose).

check these reels out.

Amazon.com: hose reel

Kenchan, can you ask the wife if you can adopt a 33 year old man?

You have all the cool toys and I want to live in your house

MrZ · 01-30-2012, 08:07 PM

Well after a weekend of spirited driving I let my gas below the 1/2 tank mark to go fill up today only to realize that thanks to NC's stupid gas tax I am paying 3.80 a gallon and $60 to fill it up to the unlit LED on my fuel gauge. But all in all can't complain got a little extra wheel time in my car

I forget how much I paid for gas last wk but I think our area is $4+ for premium.

Well, the pipe's fixed...$125 for labor and $3 for supplies.

Had to put her away wet in the end....because she really needs a proper sudsing.

Guess I know what I'll be doing tomorrow morning.

Don't ask for this...he'll put you to work as a keyboard stand.

kenchan · 01-30-2012, 09:52 PM

hey good to hear the pipe is fixed.

in cases like this (out of time, in the dark) i would use the hose to wash off the dust and finish using SprayOn CarWash inside the garage.
