Seriously someone needs to get evidence that this ridiculousness occurred because the idea behind it all is just absurd.

Well obviously they should load the truck with as much beer that it can carry. How else will they make it to Florida?

How does AI feel about throwing in on a guzzoline fund for the last of the V6 Interceptors loaded with every last tool I can fit.

Has anyone considered the legal or ethical ramifications of a Camaro from Seattle and a cop car from Florida just happening to meet in Nebraska?

There isn't a single government agency or insurance company on this planet that would sign off on what happens out there.

If you end up doing this let me know, I'm in St.Pete as well and I will send you bearing gifts for mr. 14 and ExplodingSims for the long journey. Maybe limes so they don't get scurvy? Salted meats?

Sooo, apparently, if I understand it correctly, the existing transmission in the truck, a Muncie SM420, can made to bolt up to a Jeep 4.0...

https://www.novak-adapt.com/knowledge/transmissions/manual/sm420/

Learn something new every day.

E. The 420 is relatively simple to rebuild. Many shadetree mechanics do very outstanding rebuilds if they have access to a press, snap ring pliers and bearing pullers. Many choose to do a full rebuild during the adaptation process, and our instruction guides feature all the details, diagrams, pics and tricks required to do professional level work

Got some more tools to add to the pile. :v:

See I neglected to inform him that my mentail tiers were random bumfuck card filled out with whatever the dicks minutia had in store, the letter for ~$25-30 which in my mind kind of falls into "found improvised writing or drawing surface technically able to be sent via standard postal services and good luck interpretating what arrives," the $50-60 art trinket which would be a mystery until it arrives save for the fact that it involved off mission on clock trophy hunting, the Pistons and rods, and maybe a 1 or 2 available Immortan tier $100~150 war relic. I haven't really planned much out aside from the bottom levels being honestly geared a little more towards putt by i5 in the gas tank and supplies, the trophies would actually have effort into making them unique mementos, and if AI seemed open to the alpha trim I'd want them limited to one or two because those are going to need to be halo efforts.
