But what about the food chain concept ? Yes I’m an Ass or Donkey Lover willing to die for their outrageous FOE ( freedom of expression) ….. If we consume digested pedophilia waist, could we become infected ? ….. Wouldn’t it be wiser to study, understand, treat and or dispose of properly before having the next BLT ? ….. Sorry !

4 new hoses and a coolant flush - $910
9 mile tow - $233
Still needs suspension noise looked at.

Damn, I feel like I just took a ride in an ambulance with more to come.

I didn’t even get blown an air kiss with a love you long time. It’s so bad I was actually looking at new vehicles. That excited me and scared me at the same time. Be like having a new wife, fun at first but expensive the whole time.

You could have flown me down there and bought the hoses for $900..... I'd have installed them for food.

2 radiator hoses, 2 heater core hoses and a coolant flush came out to $767. Was quoted $910 so in the end I was happy(ier) because it was less than I was expecting. Much better than if I was quoted 7 something and ended up paying 9, which is usually how it goes.

That's good to hear. I was expecting drive train $$$$$

I’ve got a plan for that. If it’s a tranny I can get a factory rebuilt tranny from Ferd with all the latest updates and a 3/36 warranty. If it’s an engine I’m throwin a ‘new’ one in there. If I’m broke it’ll be a stock crate engine, if I’m rich it’ll have some upgrades to it.

Twin turbskis!! I’ve seen a couple people on YouTube that have put superchargers on their van. I could throw a whipple on top of what I’ve got and have some fun but then I would be goosing it all the time and doin stupid shit. That’s when you start breaking other shit. I know because I used to have a GMC Savanna with a 454 in it. I had a lot of fun in that van, and I also paid for it because of it.

My first van was a Dodge

At the 7:30 point at the beginning of the ride-along, it was interesting to see the helmet in the rear of the van apparently fastened in so that l it wouldn't be damage in a collision.
Last thing I can imagine is racing a van
Neat video.

100 yards of carpet and pad in the back would make for an interesting race. We could have a hard surface bracket, 12 sheets of underlayment and a roll of vinyl in the back. Even better would be to ditch all them professional drivers and replace them with actual installers. Winner gets a Monster and a pack of smokes.

Two classes.
One with the carpet roll secured with ratchet straps and a pro class with the roll going wherever inertia takes it.

I work in the shitty part of town and I see this stuff every day. It’s sad to see but it also makes me appreciate my life even if I’m having a bad day. Come to a stop light and see that, whatever I’ve got goin on all of a sudden isn’t that bad anymore. How bout you. You feelin down. Come to Phoenix, I’ll take you on a drive down Van Buren.

What’s it like where you live.

I live in a small city of 8,000. We have a small homeless camp just outside of town. Here, they can get help, they just won't. Free housing and free food are available. There are plenty of jobs.
Food pantry serves a free hot lunch every day. No questions asked. Very few show up to get it.

Same, but in store doorways downtown and little encampments in the wooded areas. Yeah, .....sad to see.
With an upbeat thought ..
...is the lady teaching a yoga class and nobody showed up?
