Once, when I was a younger man, I half ass worked for the county precinct barn. Pretty good gig really. One day, my supervisor told me that someone had been dumping tires, and that we needed to go look to see if it was something we could feed to our tire chipper. When we got there, we found this. My supervisor had me park my Xterra next to it for scale. Apparently some guy was running a tire scam, where he would "haul off" tires from tire shops for a buck a tire which was half of what they were paying other places at the time. He took their tires, took their money, and instead of disposing of them the right way, he dumped it on the property out there (he was buying it, but defaulted on the payments). There were an estimated 250k tires out there I think. Anyway, my old supervisor found these and scanned/emailed them to me. Crazy.View attachment 18572View attachment 18570

It really is. Maybe ill just daily it awhile.


Your unicorn is still out there btw. It beckons.
I know it does. Quite literally. If I hadn't dropped the truck off to get the Titan rear installed, I'd probably be trying to do some things right now. I've kind of hit the point of no return on the Titan swap.

@Prime This popped up too, for $500. "Running when wrecked". I thought about going to look at it and see if it could be repaired for a toy fairly easily, if not, its worth it in parts I think.193207206_10219558026922658_852179677645822749_n.jpg194111536_10219558050883257_1744451391290517818_n.jpg194638030_10219558049603225_7056874524274149412_n.jpg

Makes more sense to me. I may message him and see where his head is at price wise. I cant afford $6500 but if I could sell orange for a nice sum, and my beater Rogue, I could swing it and daily the blue one maybe.

Who knows. I'm just rambling.

Why. So you can have two unicorns? You greedy bastard.

Nothing. Not one thing ever goes right for me. Ever. Not once. Never. Ever.

I drove around with those leaves for 6 months because I didn't have the strength to put them on. I've had the rotors and pads for about 3 months but didn't have the energy or place/space to tackle the job in one sitting so they sat onmy living room floor until my health got so bad I quit my job and had to move to TX to get back into the Baylor health system so I paid a friend who's a shade tree mechanic trying to start up his own thing to help get them on as I just can't do it.. and...this.

I got burned the last time I needed help in this exact situation too with my bumper and shiat. I'm so ready to break a mother ufckers neck. When I called to see if I'd left my shades he asked me to check my lug nuts. They were all finger tight and I'd lost two of them. ufckin ufck man, what gives!?
