Got my "loan paid in full" notice from the bank yesterday, on my wife's cr-v. Woop woop.

Unfortunately the letter was ambiguous about whether I would receive a title, or have to request it from the DMV. Car was purchased brand new, anybody know how this works?

Yeah, Enourmo, I've probably failed more exams than you've taken. But things like degrees are a ratchet, once you get up that next click, you're good, how and how long don't matter any more. Then get yourself in the door somewhere, and it becomes about your capability, people have seen too many imbeciles with massive theoretical knowledge and great qualifications who can't actually do anything. Get that inertia of being known as competent and things just kind of roll along with or without the qualification.

In some areas of my life, I'm both terminally lazy and quite rubbish. But people don't see that so much if the bit that directly affects them is going according to plan.

And yes, you are not your mother, and the world she was dealing with is not the world as it is now.

Typically the title is proof of ownership so the bank physically holds it, when you receive it it should be stamped with some form of "lien released" or similar.

Depending on your bank it may take some time before you receive it, it took my bank over four months to release the title and that was after making a call a week for the last month.

I'm wondering if an actual state issued title was ever printed...we bought the car new so I assume if the bank had anything it was the certificate of origin provided by Honda?

I'm thinking either I get nothing (bank sends CO to DMV and they record the release of lien; I have to request a printed title) or the DMV sends me a new title in the next couple weeks.

So I just road raged on hardcore and I have no idea why. I had to run back to work and fix something real quick and on the return trip I passed some cars in the left lane and a truck (turned out to be an Avalanche) started riding my rear end, honking and flashing his lights. So I hit it and pulled away but he persisted. I got to my exit and barely hit the brakes and well, he must have thought he was driving a different car because he took the exit curve at full speed and ran right off the highway. I have no idea if they wrecked or are dead. gently caress em.

How is that a road rage on your half? It sounds more like gave a douchebag a lesson in not being stupid.

Unless you mean you got road raged then that is especially (NELSON) HA HA!

Someone elsewhere asked me to clarify, this is basically what happened. The red line is the route I took. The blue line is where the truck went.

If memory serves there's a pretty big ditch in that direction, right before the northbound on ramp.

Well poo poo. My hand felt fine so I lifted last night and now my wrist is jacked. I mean, it's useable, I can type and lift things but I just picked up a weight and I couldn't hold it.

I feel like taking a team in and trying to get those cars running under dark of night would be almost worth getting caught and being subject to whichever weird rear end-backwards punishment they'd dole out. Also why hasn't there been a F&F film made about such a heist?

Can you buy those abandoned cars for cheap or no

quote:

If there’s one good thing to come of the UAE’s abandoned car epidemic, it’s that car lovers can at least pick up some phenomenal machines at discount prices. Owners of luxury cars impounded by police have 15 days to come and claim their vehicle, before the car is auctioned off.

Most of the cars are sold by the authorities for pennies on the dollar, and given that thousands of cars are auctioned off each year there is at least an opportunity to get yourself a serious bargain. Just make sure you can afford the repayments.

Don't feel bad, I did yard work all weekend, planted four trees and moved two (lots of digging), so my hands feel like mush and I can barely make a fist.

Doesn't help that I'm probably in the early stages of arthritis either

That sucks man. But I ain't too far behind you. I fluxed back up to 183 so I really want to get back on this. My trainer buddy said to wrap my wrist and not touch a weight for a week. And I was gonna sand the Miata headlights today.
