    Totally fair. Helped crew for the Iron Dinosaur out of Pittsburgh, PA. Owner/driver Don Gillmore. Haven't been on the salt since 2016, but now I want to build a motorcycle speed machine. Very hot. Pretty good salt surface. All in all, a good week. Could have been worse!

    I like to think Bobby is still out there somewhere, out hustling the hairy legs, getting all the ups. Giving advice to the fellas, “Boys, if you work it like me you’ll be living in a mansion, buying some dope ass guns, and skiing that fine ass Tennessee pow.” He’s sitting in a cubicle/office with Tom Cruise memes all over the walls.

    Another legend gone, much like Bmill’s Tedski.

    So I broke every rule of used car buying yesterday. Found a private party 14 Volvo s60 with 31k miles locally for $12k, test drive and put down $500 deposit. Took a very long drive and a decent shake down but I usually get a PPI . I didn't even bring my scanner to check codes.
    I ran the vin and no wrecks/clean title

    I justified to myself because I know that car would sell to the next guy to look at it.

    Schedule to meet the guy(selling for his elderly sister) at my bank Monday for a certified check... What the fuck am I thinking ??!!

    Literally broke every rule I tell friends and family when they go buy cars.

    Make sure the windshield doesn’t leak when you get it home.

    So, is a free Carfax report on the for sale Carfax site the same as spending money?

    I'm guessing it's just a snapshot. Vehicles that have obviously sold, don't show up as a new owner. Strangely, since it's allmost all auctions nowadays, dealers post report before they do any work to get ready to sell? On would think it would be advantageous to add what was done to vehicle before listing. Or do they just flip around auction inventory take photos and list?

    I typed out a thing that disappeared. The same car with the same pics was listed during COVID for $10k more.

    Yes that's way better.

    Buy that "Thunderbird" if you like walking everywhere.

    Or having cars as yard art.

    We're safe though, my sedan allergy protects me. I kinda like the long wheelbase and Chebbie small block though.
