Not as far as I know. It's all registered, tagged, insured, etc. so I don't think it should be too much of an issue.

From the looks of the neighborhood it's older so I doubt it. Most of the HOAs around here seem to go hand in hand with newer gated communities, I guess it would be difficult to create one out of nowhere in an already long established neighborhood.

This has been the single greatest thread in my time on SA, for sure. I've spent far more money on things that brought me 10,000 times less enjoyment.

Godspeed 14", time to collect your kitteh and start a new life. Angry robot and Sims, congrats on the trip, truck, and whatnot.

Do you know if Koreasat5A will be a 1st stage return mission? Because that'd be the fuckin' ideal thing to get to see.

If you do plan to see a launch, plan to spend the whole day at the space center. The launch may or may not happen, delays are common due to weather etc., but it's an amazing place to visit anyway. Get the full tour.

By the way, Angryrobot deserves alota thanks for hauling rear end down to florida to pick up sims, going all the way to nebraska to rescue the trukk and dave, coming back to florida to drop it all off and still having the central florida to south carolina drive left to do alone to get back home. Thats alot of loving driving time and mileage to help another dude on the internet get his truck home. You are a good dude and it was a pleasure to meet you. :)

I humbly suggest having seat try his hand at it. And probably have it edited for sanity afterwards along with having it checked for subliminal messaging that would cause the reader to begin buying random 80s econoboxes and cram nitrous in them.

Are you gonna ride on donations for the next leg? Not to be debbie downer but I dunno if your bike adventures are gonna sustain the same level of charity as this trukk thing did, and I hope you don't wind up stranded somewhere. Also, how's the foot?

That would be a loving killer ride down US 1 man.

There's a decent Hostel in Florida City right at the start of US1, would be a good place to rest up before you head out, the people that run it are cool.

It just occurred to me that we just shipped Dave to the very place we were collectively trying to convince ultimateforce to leave just a couple years back, because the work options were for poo poo, and he was drowning in debt.

Someone needs to give him a helmet cam, then he can become a Youtube Vlogger and rake in those sweet Adsense bucks.

Btw, another thing that needs to be said in this thread. I know a lot of people didn't believe Dave. Didn't believe that he was being sincere, that he was always telling the whole truth. Well, after seeing what it was like, I can tell you, he is 100% correct. Those goddamn flies out there are the loving worst. We had like 12 of them in the truck. They get everywhere. They just non-stop buzz you, land on you, try to crawl in you, and are just generally the worst.

Nope, there's going to be a thread, but it's not out of expectations of finance. Thing is, yeah. You guys gave me what I needed until now, but you also gave enough for me to go towards something. There's going to be a trailer and supplies and a place to start over when I'm done. But previously, I had my career tying me down, then addiction tying me down, then valentine tying me down. This is the first chance I've had in my adult life,totally free to take me in what ever direction the wind may choose and I'm not going to loving turn that down. I'm riding out the cold weather in Denver, my parents will assist with what they are able to. I even had a few opportunities in Valentine to pursue bad choices I didnt because while I can't promise I'll be perfect, it's on my terms now and I'm choosing to move forward. I want to live again, and I've been given what I need to do so. Now it's up to me to discover what my new life will entail. I'm not going back to wrenching professionally. Let's find out who I really am.

Just looked them up. They have some downright reasonable rates (and even offer camping spots?! holy poo poo), and looks loving awesome. Looks more like a mini resort than a hostel.

I used to stay there cuz it's right by Homestead speedway, back when I did motorsports photography, it was nice and a hell of a lot cheaper than a hotel. Also there is an amazing mexican restaurant across the street from it called Rosilitas I think. Best loving chimichangas I've ever had in my life, ate there every day I stayed and anytime I go to the Keys I always stop there to eat.

[e] come to think of it Dave, the Keys are still recovering from Irma, you could probably make some spare cash if you needed it just helping out doing manual labor type poo poo. This time of year is perfect for it because it's starting to cool off now.
