Hmmmmmmmmm what completely unnecessary trash am I going to spend my hard earned cash on this time?

Seriously though I'm glad you mentioned it, I got my mt2500 scanner there this spring and I've easily already gotten my money's worth out of it. We'll probably be there.

Does that scanner have the capability to pair a 98 Cherokee key fob to the truck?

I will at least buy a sausage egg and cheese this year, I dont really need much else, but just enjoy being amongst my people.

Nope. Only goes to 96 right now and I'm not sure it can do stuff like pairing. You can buy pre-paired remote fobs and receiver PCBs at the junkyard or on eBay sometimes though.

We showed up around noon and bought 30 bucks worth of old metal CDs, a spare wheel for the Roadmaster, a pickaxe, and something else I can't remember. I had my eye on an OBD2 pro grade diagnostics tool for 300 and then remembered that Torque exists and I have a smartphone and an ELM327 dongle... Almost bought a real AC refrigerant recovery machine for 20, then 10, then 5, but decided I don't have enough shop space to justify that.

Anyone have recs for an exhaust shop around Boston? I'm considering having a shop do the 'gundo hack' to my 911 exhaust:

Seems pretty straightforward; anything wrong with having Lou's Custom Exhaust do it?

Anyone know if Team O’Neil Rally School is doing another open practice day this winter, like last year? I haven’t heard anything and I want to go beat my rusty clam some more.

That night we performed the rite and opened the gate.
Halfway through, I went to fix us both a coke float.
By the time I got back, he'd gone insane.
Plus, he'd left the gate open and there was evil everywhere.


I have underground parking until next Tuesday when I move into my new home and then will have to keep a jump starter on hand.

I'm still on their mailing list and didn't see anything. Last time tore the big rust hole on my charger to twice the size; not sure I wanna risk any more before I sell it.

If you could tear a rust hole bigger that easily, everything around it was already rust anyway. You are just being a more honest seller, plus you can include with the car pictures of it sliding on dirt which they can show to their friends and pretend was theirs.

I patched it up and will definitely disclose how rusty it was/is.
It was like 3" long before the test day, 6" long after, and a full foot (though not much wider) once I pulled all the rust off before patching.
