I should be open for business by early January. I'll make an official announcement here among all of the other sites and social media outlets once my doors are open.
Answered on GD.com. Should not have more than .005" of in/out play. Anymore than that and it should be pulled to replace the mainshaft bearing under the nosecone. (full rebuild)
Weird, I never got a notification of the tag.
2wd vs 4wd:
4wd will generally be better almost everywhere. Less stress on rear axles/CV's and helps spread the load across the entire drivetrain, allowing all parts to last longer, including belts. The downside is that it can make the car understeer or "push" in tight corners, especially if...
That was the plan. But the HOA rates increasing combined with the cost of our mortgage outpaced the rental income we would have received for the next few years. I am using some of the incoming from the sale to purchase our next home here and use to start my new business.
I wanted a complete...
Update:
CalExit and LHC move in is complete. Next time we need to move, I'll just set everything on fire and buy new. Need to get the California plates off the cars ASAP, we stick out like a sore thumb. Working on getting a shop space leased out thanks to Stacy and Dave. Hoping to be up and...
Santa Barbara/Goleta area is typically about 1.2+ for a run down 3/2 that needs $100k worth of work to make it liveable.
There are still 3/2 homes in Ventura for around $800k, but again, need $100k to bring them somewhat up to date and liveable.
Just got word that the high school kids that we were planning on helping us move in this weekend aren't available.
I am looking for some help to unload our U-haul truck this Sunday morning from 9-12. Ideally a couple of high school or college aged kids looking looking for some extra cash. Will...
I also thought about moving to rural Nor Cal before we decided on Havasu. It's great up there. Like others have said, mostly red, but surrounded by blue.
The problem with me is that I would be pretty out of the way from my customer base. Havasu has really become a hub for the offroad...
I wont be leaving the industry, I'll still be offering the same services once I get everything set up in Havasu. Will make an official announcement about that when ready.
Literally laughing out loud as I saw this thread. I was going to post the same request to help me unload a few of the bulky items out of our moving truck on Sunday morning. My 100 pound wife isn't the best man for that job. I was hoping to enlist a couple of high school kids willing to earn some...
That number might actually be a little on the low end.
Yup, another middle class family, born and raised in Southern California, picking up and leaving for something better. I sure will miss this great weather.
I started working at Weddle Industries October 2012. I had zero experience working...
Since posting this yesterday, the scamming is quite obvious. Sent out quite a few "kick rocks" reply's this morning. Virtual fist bumps for all of the responses to this thread, thank you everyone.
I had one lady actually call and ask me questions about it. We'll see if she shows Saturday morning.
I assumed almost all of these were scams as well. All seemed too good to be true. Pretty crazy how they actually communicate with you though, I can see how sellers would be tempted to just say "Eff it, I'll pay the money for the stupid report if it makes you buy it!"
I've told everyone one of...
I posted my 2016 Buick Verano commuter car on Craigslist last night. I had 6 messages by the time I woke up this morning, with a total of 11 different messages a I write this.
It's priced to sell at $5000, about $1000 below private party blue book value. It's a great car, it's been very...
It reminded me of the Dave Chapelle bit about being "taken" to the Ghetto without previous knowledge or being prepared...
"Gun store, gun store, liquor store, gun store! Where the f**k you takin me!"
My Waffle House story.
A few years ago during a PRI show in Indy, our flights home on Sunday night were cancelled. We got accommodation tickets from the airline and stayed the night in a hotel near the airport that I am positive had been used for murders and other nefarious activities on a...
