THINGS HAVE TAKEN AN UNEXPECTED TURN

Due to Tremek being awesome and keeping a close eye on his local CL, I have purchased a vehicle I never expected to purchase, with no rust.

Looks like I will be flying out and driving it home at some indeterminate point in the very near future.

AI goons between Colorado and Massachusetts: Friends, hoons, countrymen. Lend me your driveways

If you know what it is please don't say anything till I pick it up.

It's still a Jeep, right...

J truck or an SJ is my guess. (Please be an FC...)

Andersons in the grille is the ticket, yeah. First thing I do to a work truck. Protip: smaller alligator clips will fit right in the connector. Handy for chargers, air compressors, etc.

A safety siphon is the pro move. gently caress accidentally gargling gas. Best way to use a gas can, too. There isn't a no-spill spout that isn't a complete piece of poo poo.

The pushbutton ones aren't that bad outside of the 90° spout being annoying for some stuff. Good as saw cans though. My hatred is more directed at the twist lock, shove it against the edge of the fill neck type. The vp racing ones are good, but I'm too cheap to throw out a bunch of gas cans. Their I'm not touching you poo poo with the EPA is always funny. Yes, sir, these red cans are definitely for water or pesticides, not gasoline, I swear.

Sharky, I don't get the air quality / wasting fuel thing. Close the vent for storage, problem solved? Meanwhile everything that I'm filling with said gas can has a vented tank.

Sorry for the gas can derail, kastein.

Set of monroe air shocks or maybe a set of sumosprings if you don't want to have air?

You've already bought the bags, so likely irrelevant, but if for some reason the bags don't work out, check the measurements on the Gabriel 49311 or maybe Monroe MA728.

I finished up around 6am. Then started reorganizing my tools and packing them into the truck. Still working on that and napping occasionally because holy poo poo am I tired, it turns out I'm not 25 anymore.

Looks like it turned out pretty good. You take it for a test drive?

Many of these points are like literally just like one line points with no explanation lol. Just so bad man it's wild the lack of detail and effort here. Again not sure if like he was going to do more work here in writing something up, or all an inspection gets you is a conversation over the phone around a high level hit list of problems and its expected that I need to do all the leg work to figure out what this all means.

He's hustling you. Laundry list of nonsense poo poo to make it sound like he's doing you a favor buying it from you for peanuts. Just price it similarly to other YJs listed in your area and consider the inspection fee a lesson learned.
