Be frank with them about the situation, see what they can do. You have literally nothing to lose by doing that.

which had all of ten more horsepower than the AMC 2.5/150 at the time (the two would go on to have exactly the same output for the rest of the 80s in other applications once EFI was applied).

Are they offering a wage that can sustain you living in Key West? If not don't bother. Might wanna check rent rates and availability before you accept any jobs there.

A bird in the hand... I wouldn;t gently caress up the current poo poo going on for you. Take them up only if things go sour at the hostel or the other place you mentioned you had a shoe in during peak season.

Yeah go with your gut, if you're happy at the Hostel stay there for the winter gently caress it.

To be honest, you'd have a hard time living in Key West unless you're making a relatively good hourly wage, like at least $15hr and even then you'd be scraping by probably and still dealing with rear end in a top hat cops.

I am probably going to buy my car on the way out of Florida and register in Colorado because it costs a gently caress ton just to get a license plate

Applebees Appetizer
Jan 23, 2006

It's not that bad considering once you get a plate it stays with you for life, and then you just pay a small transfer fee when getting a new car. But yeah if you're not gonna stay here probably not worth it unless you want to drive around for whatever reason.

Only thing that sucks about your plan is you're gonna be stuck with whatever is available for sale at the time you leave.

Depends, how long does he have to register it after purchase?

And if it's kept on private land, does it matter if it isn't? Can he park up what he buys until he leaves?

Applebees Appetizer

Dave did you didn't get a FL driver's license did you? because if you did you don't have a choice. If you didn't yet don't get one here.

If you get an out of state license you can get a temp tag for "in transit" purposes until you get to the state you're going to register the car in. I don't know how long it's good for though.

I did something similar once on a road bike, combined with clipping the kerb with the pedal. Bent the BB axle.

What痴 the time frame on car buying / moving to CO? My wife and I bought an XJ that didn稚 run, since she wanted to learn wrenching stuff. It runs now (fixing other stuff slowly, it痴 still ugly and clapped out) and we want to get rid of it soonish. If Dick were to get to CO soon (don稚 want it sitting forever), we would cut him a hell of a deal. But it sounds like the plan is to buy in Florida to drive to CO?
