I alway's look thru C.L. for Xterra's/part's so last night I run across an ad and in the title it say's 4d , so after reading the whole thing right near the end it state's it's 2wd :( I guess they weren't lying about having 4 DOOR'S..................Talk about deception or am I wrong and there's a 2 door Xterra model:cool:View attachment 16080 . Then a couple line's down another X in a different color but worded the same exact way ! Normally I wouldn't say much , BUT it's "Carvana"........... So now they deliver a new to them X thinking it's 4wd and not figuring out it's 2wd till it's to late . Nice business practice CARVANA !!!

I understand your point Crabby but let's say you were looking for a SUV with no knowledge of them. I feel you would easily think that meant 4 doors. I know it sounds crazy to a forum full of car people but there plenty of folks that have no clue what a Xterra is and could tell you the difference in one compared to a Taurus.

And not picking on you but I can imagine I would have ever confused 4D with 4WD

I wouldn't my self but I'm sure there's people that see the 4 and would think 4wd right of the bat, probably because they never owned one, Or didn't take a Evelyn Wood speed reading course !! Lol ; or maybe some naïve teen buying there first car. I read the ad till the end that's how I knew it was 2wd. It still peaked my interest because one of them had 53,000+ mile's and look's really nice.

The ohio legislation shut our dumb ass governor down. They passed a law saying he could not pass anymore covid mandates. He said he will veto it but they will overrule his veto.

Yes, when the state average household income is $56k and you keep threatening to shut their jobs down for a virus that has less than 1% mortality rate that qualifies him as a dumb ass. People can't afford not to work.

Day 4 of "install gas fireplace"

Pulled longer HDMI cables through the wall. The kids didn't pull two of them through the holes I cut through the studs for them and I didn't realize it till I had everything tied up and hooked up.

Cut the book shelf for the cables and got the ROKU, Xbox and blu-ray player hooked back up.

Wife is supposed to finish staining the fireplace mantle and paint the wall this weekend so I can get it mounted next week. Then to put the plumbing in for that.

Was dropping off a bushel of crab's to a friend who own's the local autobody shop and they have a Citron there that someone bought in to them. Dam it's tiny , I think the wheel's on my heavy duty handcart are as big as the car's. Sorta like the offspring of a Saab and a VW thing .:cool:20201125_132109.jpg

The dogs are on edge tonight, kind of gives me an uneasy feeling. They are stationed at the window looking out it every few minutes.

Would like to see a pic if possible... We did our setup a couple years ago except we hired a professional. Probably saved my marriage.

Right now it's still a mess. I'll try to get pictures when we're done.

She wants me to build the book shelves eventually but with the kids doing virtual school and work and the holidays and sun going down at 5pm, I don't have time to do that.
