Welcome to the IHoP v.2

Recommended Posts

I buy smartwool socks.

They have half off once and a while. I buy 150-200 bucks at a time. Ends up the same cost as a bunch of cottons and no stinky feet..... Other than today.

But today was cheeper REI brand....

Teh arthritis is one of the side effects of her Crohns.  Before they figured out what it was she had a couple of docs tell her she had rheumatoid and to just deal with it, bam, heres some steroids.

So once you get it done in 6 months are you going back to GM to give the keys to the engineers and tell them that is how you should have built it in the first place?

Duh. I'll walk into engineering and tell the VP himself. Definitely a few people that work for him first.

I am REALLY drawn to this, minus about half the money.

Seriously, jman.gif

Go buy it. Spend $2k on a conversion kit, $1200 on an LS motor from your pops, and have a shit kickin', cheap to insure, safe, reliable, comfortable, and super sporty rig to haul Jr. around in. Can't really think of a better solution for you. Snows on that in the winter will make you UBER happy. Very predictable chassis. Everything outside of powertrain is cheap.

While I am a fan of the LS engines, I am already sick of them being used in everything.  If I'm going to bastardize it, I'll do it with Blue Oval power.

 

My truck should be done here within the month, so I no longer have to worry about driving my cars in the snow.  As beat up as the interior is in that thing, it's only worthy of being driven in the winter, and there's no way in hell I'm spending anything on the  interior.  Fucking Ford and their peanut butter tan.

I was and am sick of it too. Just too damn cheap to not. I'd prefer your route, but don't have the time to fab (nor capability/tools) which leaves me in bolt on world. Can do that in the BM'er and have the benefit of a German chassis and the no expense of the American V8. Sucks it is the wrong V8, but $3k more if you aren't fabbing shit yourself makes it tough.

My truck is going to be a gay, bullshit, all bolt on, poser truck....but it's going to be cheap, look good, and rip. I'm just too damn cheap to do it to something worth doing it to.

Fuck you barometric pressure.

FUCK YOU!

The ole joints acting up on you? The W has the built in weather meter too.

My right thumb is ~15% wider than my left, and through my pants you can see my right knee looks like a puffy cantaloupe.

Feet never sweat in my Allen Edmonds, and they were so snug today my wool socks were damp.

Fuck dude.

I do love my wool socks, ever since getting them I hardly wear cotton ones anymore.

What wools do you buy. I got a pair of darn tough socks that I absolutely love bit at $12 a pair its steep.

Don't stress. That $12 will outlive 4 3$ or 3 4$ socks easy.

I got roids for my back. Worked awesome and I don't think I am any different feeling otherwise.

I have had them for 3 days. Could also be the exercises.

Hernia surgery last year left me limping such that I taught my body how not to use some of my muscles. Compensation twisted my hips/spine and is now pinching a nerve.

Sorry. Side effects listing on them are nuts. My back hurt so bad I didn't give a shit. Whatever it took. Not being able to tie your shoes is not acceptable.

She's got good drugs now, life is LOTS better.  Insurance is paying better than 120$ a day for this shit over the year.  :)
