So since I don't have to worry about rent, a couple hundred bucks in side jobs will handle the rest of my storage and bills.

ExplodingSims has purchased a truck in XXX

Truck is shipped to goon YYY in ZZZ

ExplodingSims is going to meet 14" in ZZZ to fix said truck

ExplodingSims has purchased at Van in Florida

ExplodingSims is going to drive said van to ZZZ as an engine donor?

14" is going to fly to meet ExplodingSims at ZZZ? OR 14" is going to drive the Civic to ZZZ?

Profit??

Nah man. 14 has done an amazing job so far. If there has to be a hiatus then so be it, Dave's health is more important than the internet getting blue balls for 6 months. Hell, maybe that's part of his plan - to just keep edging us.

And I don't mean that in a "gently caress 2016" kind of way, I just mean I look forward to checking this thread every day because it never fails to entertain. Safe travels, pet Rosie, keep awesome.

Fuckin' same same. My buddies Jeep pissed coolant everywhere. He was so broke so we just manned up and fixed it. The water pump is a super basic fix on a TJ Wrangler but that didn't stop us feeling like supermen when it fired up with no leaks and now runs like a champ. It's such a fun and satisfying experience

Sent some money to everdave to help out. Student loans be damned, I'm ahead for the year and the New Zealand Government can eat my rear end.

I don't know what's going to happen re: the bike, I hope that it gets found because it sounds like Dave had some poo poo he likes in the box. Bikes and batteries we can help with but drat, a good leather jacket with some history?

Stay safe team. We're all rooting for you.

Dave, did you ever read Hatchet by Gary Paulsen in school?

Oh sweet mercy. Please don't combine 14" and Hatchet. That's like combining porn and a Haynes manual.

I think someone sent Dave a Biolite stove, I just watched the AvE tear down on those, seems like a solid bit of kit. Until of course Dangerous Dave figures out how to upscale it with a jeep and bunch of fans. FIRE TORNADO MAKES ELECTRICITY

This has been a fun thread to watch. It's like a train wreck in slow motion. I still hope it works out one way or another.

Oh hey you're that edgy poster from that Automotive Sanity forum. :rolleyes:

Dave, I hope you're doing ok. Are you eating? Enough? I dunno what I can do from Straya oval office but if I can shout you a meal or two, let me know (how?)

There's a lot going on in this thread at the moment, I think we need to take care of our guy. We can't control a lot of things but maybe if we can keep Dave fed and covered in chrome hopefully he can take care of the rest.

If the goon who shouted pizza can weigh in on how to make that happen again please do. I'm overseas but maybe I can paypal you some cash so it can happen again?

I dunno who that was, but the local pizza hut will take a card over the phone and Dave can pick it up. Ham and pineapple :hampants:

I couldn't get their online ordering system to take a card, even with setting up an account with an attached card. Maybe someone else would gave more luck with that.

I'm happy to do this but it's going to be a bit poo poo trying to organise it from a few time zones away, is there a more local goon who will do pizza duty, can maybe text/liaise with Dave. I'll paypal the money through

I have full faith in USPS dick. You just gotta believe.
I was worried about my last order arriving before I moved out of here. USPS sent it from NY to Dubai and I got worried. But within 4 days it's got to perth, dubai was the one and only stop.
That beats UPS that sent my last US order to alaska, korea, china and then singapore, taking 8 days, (and for twice the price). Only problem is now I got to rely on auspost for the final leg, because I used USPS to get it here. Auspost advertise they will gently caress you up and sit on and hold parcels because we suck and don't pay enough.

LOL AUSPOST

I haven't sent anything direct because it took them 6 weeks to figure out my leather boots weren't made of giraffe before they released them.

Dick what is your turntable situation? Considering expediting this bundle
