Well, I knew it was too good to be true. All this excellent weather we have been having ends today. Starting tomorrow it will be 91, and then we get triple digit temps for the next 8 days or so I bet it will be over 100 when I am able to move out of here. Maybe I should hire movers. Let them do all the work while I save myself from a stroke. LOL
good morning dudes. things are still a little cloudy and cool here in oakland. i saw the folks at KTVU channel two news are calling for some hot temps this weekend. i'm not gonna lie, i'm looking forward to that. for now i'm just hanging out before going into work this afternoon. i need to tend to my tomato plants (re-stake them) and look for things to pack for lunch/dinner/lunch/snacks.
big day here at 2D. BIG DAY!! take care guys, and speed slowly.
Hey Jim, aren't most of those exotic imports like Jaguars and Mercedes very expensive when it comes to repairs? John
No idea, never owned one. However, the one I am looking at is a one owner car, and all scheduled maintenance has been done on it. So even though it has 156k on it, I think it should be fine. My Bronco has 236k on it and it works great. If it turns out to be a lemon, I'll just sell it. I have heard repair bills are high on BMW and Mercedes, so maybe they are on Jaguars as well. Like any vehicle though, if you keep it well maintained you should get years of service out of it.
Typically it's true that luxury cars cost more all the way across the board. I'm not sure on the older ones but anything 02+ costs quite a bit to maintain. My buddies wife had an Mercedes SLK and the 50k mile service was almost $5000...
Your car started making raspy noises eh? I thought you bought a truck?

Good Morning Jim and Hank, Gerry n all the FTE guys,
I thought so to lol, it was more like a ticking noise which went away 1 week later.
What's this "Flash" you speak of Hank?
I think when I got under the truck I noticed a transmission pan seal leak, hope I'm wrong.
Other then truck talk things are nice here in Oakland today. This weekend I get to work on my rx7 taking out the engine,trans,subframes,diff,exhaust,wheels,suspens ion.
Wow, you are still alive. LOL that is cool. So what happened to our business? Did you get a trailer yet? When do we start? Just wondering, have not heard from you in months. Hope you get that job. I will be flipping cars for a living here shortly.
