    What marketing genius came up with that label?

    I'm still troubled by what I did for that Klondike bar...

    I don't know who made the cigar, but Matt booth had to have made the label

    Just saw the body cam footage from Aurora Colorado. Officer Haubert needs to go to jail. There's no excuse for what happened there.

    I hate these little pukes who know everything. They ones who make it their purpose in life to prove other people wrong, even when they don't have a clue what they are talking about.

    I do like it when I can prove them wrong.

    Them: You can't put that engine in that truck, so that can't be that engine.
    Me: picture of that engine in that truck with the numbers showing what it is.
    Funny, that's what this is.

    The only real issue would be the Reluctor wheel, it would need to be the switched to the same number of teeth or use a converter box between the sensor and the cpu.

    Yep. And they saw the Lingenfelter converter on the inner fenderwell.
    Anyone who had dealt with LS or LQ9 engines knows what its for.

    But if someone says there is an engine in a vehicle and gives you the serial number of that engine, then one should assume they person is correct.

    No, if I don't get screwed on this property and actually get it, the Tony will be hauling a trailer full of Crap from our house here. No way to haul anything else. What won't fit in the trailer gets sold.

    I hate when I go for a property that sits for months with no interest and the moment I make any offer someone wants to be interested in it.

    having to be the middle man between my DRs and my crappy health insurance .
    the amount of times ive had call back and forth to get things approved and claims paid is ridicolous

    I seriously hate this real estate crap.
    Seems that when people list an asking price, that's not really the price they want.
    So in order to buy anything, you play this stupid game of how much do they really want? Cause if you make their offer the list price, you will never buy anything.
    And realtors are pretty much useless.

    This is how stupid people are.
    Listed my truck on an SS group.
    Said that the oil pump pickup tube o-ring seems to be cracked, cause the oil pressure drops to 15 psi when temp gets to about 200.

    I get a message asking it I think the truck will drive from Oregon to southern California.

    Um..gonna go with no.

    I guess no one reads anything anymore
    You can put all the info in the descriptions and the geniuses will ask a dozen questions which have been already answered.

    Picture of instrument panel with odometer reading.
    Message: Hey, how many miles are on it?
    Me: I don't know, let me check the picture I posted.
    Them: Oh, there is a picture of the mileage?
    Me: Yes, it's the one of the instrument panel and the one you asked why the check engine light was on.
    They do that when the key is on and it isn't running.

    Just received my new Cigar Oasis 3.0 plus. Apparently, they've changed out the ribbon cable (which worked perfectly with my humidor) to a USB cable which is thicker and has USB connectors on both ends which prevent it from going through the hinged side of the humi. ****!

    To top it off, the phone app won't connect to my network. Not happy.

    I hate driving an hour to Sugarland to test drive Camaros...Get there at the dealership, drive around not seeing any. I go inside find a sales guy, tell him I'm looking to test drive a new or used 2019-21 2SS 10 speed auto and also a 6 speed manual. He goes on the computer and 5 mins later said "They are ALL sold" I said you have 10 here, your people just updated inventory this morning online.

    They seriously were ALL SOLD no BS! Told him I'm looking to order a 2022 2SS 1LE fully customized to my preferences but need to test drive just a 2SS first to figure out which transmission to order, he understood and said he personally sold 3 that came in 1 day! I said you seriously have people who see the car online and just flat out buy it without even looking at it? "Yep"

    Never thought I could be blindly ordering a basically dream Camaro without getting to drive one similar or even get to drive one at all.

    If you quote me do the @TX98Z28 in your text or I won't be notified of your quote, Thanks.

    They claim the new autos are so good that the manuals can’t compare. The vettes no longer offer a manual option. I still like banging the gears in a sports car or even anything with some pep.

    The 10L90 is technically a faster shifting trans, 125m's shifts are fast. Gear ratio's and specs here https://gmauthority.com/blog/gm/gm-transmissions/10lxx/10l90/
    rear axle ratio will be a 2.85 with the 1LE track package.

    The TR-6060 manual is basically the beefed up version of the T-56 were both used to banging gears in, 1st is 2.66 spread out, think the ratios are identical except the TR-6060 is stronger rated at 650ftlbs same as the 10L90. I know both can take 700-800rwhp no problem with the disadvantage being no banging gears, and it weighs about 70lbs. more than the TR-6060 plus the trans fluid is a PITA to change vs the TR-6060 gonna need to change that every 5k-7k.

    It's a hard choice man, think most people cant drive a manual hence the unfortunate demise of the manual is happening. I'd never buy a Corvette in an auto, no fvcking way lol

    Almost forgot manual comes with a 3.73 rear axle ratio, need to do some ratio calculating but really need to drive both. I have one manual Camaro already so not opposed to the 10L90, but must drive one.

    There is just something about banging gears, getting thrown back in the seat where these new autos is almost like one big pull no power shifting either >:)

    If you're a big guy, you definitely want to test drive the Camaros.
    Make sure you can get out the damn thing.
    I'm skinny and just at 6', but I can't hardly get out of one without crawling out.
    It's what prevented me from buying one.
    I couldn't see me trying to crawl out of one in the pouring rain.

    Tony I still own my Z28 and yes it’s a fvcking **** to get in and out of, was in high school, still is now. I expect the new ones to be about the same, probably slightly roomier, exception being the large bolsters for the seats is gonna suck! Now I just have to find two to test drive.

    Screw that test drive, get the manual. I keep having this debate w/ a friend at my lounge. He wants a new VW GTI, I want a new Golf R. He wants the auto because it's faster. I say, who cares about a couple of tenths 0-60, or if it has faster lap times; when in the real world do those numbers mean anything? I want to be involved w/ my car's behavior, more than stomping on the gas and diddling w/ some paddles.

    You can do things that your car can’t automatically do, that is if you actually know how to drive. This will always be true, no matter how smart the car is. Plus don’t forget about the down shift boost!

    Does anyone regret choosing manual when stuck in the rush hour parking lot where you inch forward a few feet at a time?

    Oh, yeah... and that's probably one of the main reasons manuals are dying. Half the population and more than half the money is in the big cities. I'm happy to have choices in life and only face that kind of jam once or twice a year.
