goatse guy posted:I might be late but I'm always down to help out with the CarFax cause with my dealer account. I don't have PMs anymore though so you'll have to post them here. Thanks for the offer - I ended up pm'ing the guy from SA Mart. For <$7, I'll eat that and be shocked and amazed carfax thinks I've ever replaced my turbo. Now where did my pile of receipts go, because I know that's never happened. In other news. Going to be in Chicago for a few days for work 4/20-23. Maybe a short goony meet up for beer? I'm the least interesting goon on the face of the planet (selling my fun car for a minivan. huzzah) but the potential for fun IS there.

I worked from 9p-8a for the Apple Watch launch and then slept until 4p. YOSPOS recommended fasting for 12-16 hours to get back on a normal schedule but ugh I woke up after dreaming of eating pizza and drinking coke

So in addition to doing better road trips and cheap car challenges Roadkill now does modern car reviews better than Top Gear. I guess it's OK that Top Gear is done.

I dont think I've ever been more tempted to walk out. It's been busy, the bitchiest manager is here, and I really don't need this job anymore. And seriously, gently caress washing dishes and cooking at the same time. I'm not going to, cause I'm not a dick, but it's tempting

And seriously, gently caress washing dishes and cooking at the same time. I've done it a bunch of times and it's liberating. gently caress them, you think they'd give you notice if they were going to fire you? The only reason you DON'T walk out is when it's on good terms. Your co workers can deal with it don't worry about them.

Good lord, people are flipping the gently caress out because Dodge is sponsoring Roadkill now and somehow that episode was complete poo poo? I mean seriously, they're totally hinting at putting a Hellcat motor in the General Mayhem. I NEED to see that, and it won't happen without Dodge.

Lol at anyone flipping out. That episode was awesome. Who cares if Dodge sponsored it? I'm sure that Chevy, Ford, Toyota and everyone else are probably going to kick themselves for not doing it first. Fantastic episode, and if it gets the boys some more awesome toys, all the better. And yes, they need to Hellcat...something.

some texas redneck posted:So this is really painful to admit. Look at the number of self admitted alchoholics in here, now ask yourself how many of those are hiding a substance abuse problem, and speak about it freely on the internet due to the degree of seperation, or the people who use that shield to hide behind so people don't know just how badly you're truly well and hosed. Oh man, he looks wrecked, always coming in late and looking ready to die, but he always makes sure to mention right off the bat just how hung over he is and man he needs to tone down those beers. The shame isn't in the act of having it, or to have it over any set of circumstances that could have caused it,. The only shame is in after realising just where you've fallen down to to choose to bury it off in the corner like a cat burying what's left of Jimmy Hoffa. Quiet and no mess, keep the status quo at all costs until the only option is the long way out. I admire your ability to stand up to it. I know it's a hard choice to make.

I had a customer today who insisted that the Autocheck and CarFax weren't enough and demanded the phone number of the previous owner.

SuperDucky posted:Pending/possible legal action. Thanks for the explanation, although I'm not sure why sticking an extra jib sail way out on a long bowsprit wasn't beneficial, even with modern materials. The bowsprit on the Columbia is cute.  I'm currently building a scale model of a Bermuda rigged armed sloop. They took the bowsprit concept to the extreme: iwentdoodie posted:Boats are awesome, but Jesus gently caress they're expensive. Even a goddamn jonboat costs entirely too much to keep going. That is why building a custom sailboat and cruising the world is my 'win the Powerball dream', and not some sort of life goal that I know I'll never be able to attain. meatpimp posted:God drat boats are expensive. A long time ago I was married to a crazy chick whose dad had too much money. He had a Chris White 46' catamaran custom built and the money in every aspect of that thing was staggering. Cats are amazing sail boats, but for whatever reason I've always thought they were ugly, and never really wanted one.

My last car was in a wreck on the interstate where a truck ran into the left rear quarter panel in rush hour traffic. Highway patrol came and made the report, etc. The carfax said that my car had been T-boned by a deer.  It would have been a lot funnier if that dumb report didn't tank the value of the car so bad, no matter that it was superficial damage that was perfectly repaired. Wreck! Oh no!

I've had several cars with clean Carfaxes and accidents on the Autocheck, and the other way around. It's best to pull both if you're worried. A PPI will tell you way more than either of those either could, but customers have been trained to believe that the CarFax is the end-all be-all of car history and the only important thing.
