  1. I would not have expected that, kinda wish I had the money and space for that, as well as a shockingly clean Turbo. Stick Shift Dodge Caravan that popped for sale recently too.
  2. $18k for what is supposed to be a clean, survivor 1924 Cadillac Sedan https://dallas.craigslist.org/ndf/cto/d/rockwall-antique-car/7211992337.html
  3. Hope she pulls through!
  4. GRuBs
  5. Could be worse, I keep trying to use “GRB” instead of “grubs”, since I’ve used that abbreviation so often this season
  6. Looks nice, may gave to get one!
  7. They can if not caught in time, you may also have issues with animals like skunks, moles, voles, etc digging for food as a warning sign. If it’s caught in time, grass can re-root itself, but that appears to be too late in those pics. If it’s that bad and the company used is doing grub control as part Of the regular services, you may call them and see if offer some sort of reservice where they can come back out and treat again and do something to repair the damage. If you don’t have grub as your normal services, I would call to set up a curative with them ASAP.
  8. I work in the call center for one of their competitors, this seems to have been a bad year for grubs. I had to set up more reservices for grub activity this year than normal, ended up setting more current customers who didn’t have grub up on curative as well as preventative applications for the next couple years than I’ve had to last few years, as well as transferred more prospective customers to sales that suddenly had grub problems.
  9. Only PreOrdered It, but this Should be shipping in November
  10. Thanks! It’s build to run against a friend’s Losi 8ight-E 3.0 1/8 scale buggy and I think it will do quite well, so long as I can keep tires on it.
  11. It’s kinda scary, to be honest, it just kept getting quicker after I stopped filming and pulling wheelies, even from a roll?
  12. 2 things.... 1st: my niece is almost 1 year old, will be as of 10/19/20......can’t believe it’s already been that long 2nd: had a 1/2 day today and took this out today........it’s........it’s just NASTY???
  13. Yikes, best of luck! Which Northwestern hospital?
  14. To me, the wheels on that Impala are too big too, I’d go at least 1-2” smaller and have a little more sidewall for comfort.
  15. Yeah, but that still has some usable sidewall to it!
  16. I think that’s what bugs my Dad the most, huge diameter wheels and stock sized brakes. My 200 with the oem 18” wheels looks a bit goofy with the also stock 11.6” rotors and single piston calipers, even though I wouldn’t go bigger than 18”, even after I get the bigger Euro market from brakes on it (13.4” rotor and 2 piston calipers from the bigger cars) on it. Anything bigger just looks off to me. I kinda feel the same about other vehicles, I’d rather have wheels no taller than I need to clear the calipers of a big brake kit.
  17. I was afraid of that, did find his same screen name on here after a while.
  18. That, or more likely, my friend didn’t share his dinner with him, last time he refused to share the sub he was eating with that cat, the cat gave him the sort of look that would have had me checking my shoes for the rest of the month? I’m not going to post it, but he bought some Little Cesars the other night and I got a video of the cat licking it’s lips and giving the biggest brownest puppy dog eyes a cat can muster, all while trying to grab some from my friend. . That cat will eat anything food like if he can and will beg, then just straight up try and take it if it’s left alone within reach if you leave him hangin’!
  19. My friend still has his 3, though I did get this pic from him tonight.........don’t ask me what he did to get that look, but Dad and we’re both just about rolling at it?
  20. I take it they just started up a troll account separate from their normal one?
  21. I didn’t buy that magazine and left that forum over him a long time ago. IIRC, what pushed me over the edge was when he attacked somebody else for converting a Revell Civic SI kit to RWD because he felt it ruined Civics winter use by doing so??
  22. Yeah, I noticed that after I got back in Dad’s van with it. Still kept it and opened it when I got home, think there are some ways to build the cab better........now for the deeeeeep sink marks in the front tire sidewalls
  23. It is 1/48 scale, according to the instructions, and the cab is 4 pieces, the front panel, roof and sides and corresponding halves of the cab back walls.....plus the seats and seat piece are supposed to be installed before the cab is assembled.....
  24. Drug this home from Hobby Lobby today, judging by the pic on the bottom of the box, it’sssss gonna to be a rough one ?
