saw a mr today, i think it was a ix. had racing stripes on it. i dont know why

 

freakin bummer

last week i was told that my evo was in georgia and had been assigned a truck to be loaded onto to bring it to lake dallas. i called today, hoping that by some miracle it was here already. turns out the car wasnt assigned a truck and still isnt assigned a truck. i know they have till june 18th to get it to me but im hurtin here. no car means im trapped in this damn apartment. i have been here for almost a month doing the same thing day in and day out and it sucks. i dont know how retired people do this ****.

anyway, im really hoping it shows up next week. i have a ton of things to do and need a car to do them.


also, i have a set of gsc beehives for sale, brand new in box.

 

They normally have at least one car lol

 

lake dallas??? why in the world would it be coming to lake dallas. i live in lake dallas. there is nothing here but liquor stores and churches.

 

thats where the vehicle processing center is

i took my dog for a walk and was watching people zoom off to go have fun and do whatever. im pissed. the car arrived and cleared customs on the 23rd. i was told it was slotted for a truck to get it. that was last friday. today im told its still there and not slotted to be loaded on a truck yet. wtf

i was trained on peterbuilts in the army and drove all kinds of trucks in iraq, give me the ****ing keys and ill go get it myself

 

Lets fly there and drive back!

 

oh yeah i forgot about that place. I thought it was just a place for armed forces to store their cars. Goes to show I don't pay attention. There are lots of evos in and out of there.

I live like 3 blocks from that place if you ever need me to run by and check on anything.

 

on most bases they have a place you can rent a bay and lift and work on your own car, and usually they have a wide array of tools too. is there anything like that around here? when my evo gets here i have to do some wrenching on her

 

not that i know of but it's something i've wanted to build for a long *** time. i'm sure it is a bad idea as a business investment combined with liability when someone would crush themselves and sue.

 

Yeah super bad idea.

 

Do you still have base privileges? I'm almost 100% sure the base over by Lake Worth has an auto shop with bays you can use.

 

yup, on my orders it states im allowed to use the px and commisary for two years

where is lake worth?




on a side note, the evo was loaded onto a truck today. hopefully wednessday it will be here. in the meantime, look what came in the mail!

 

New parts in the mail always makes for a good day

 

Im curious, What performance shop did you get this MOD from? How much HP will he add?

To all you non-lawyers out there, it isn't really a bad idea, you just have to have the proper waivers. There are a few shops here in DFW that offer this kind of service. At SMU's business plan class, a guy (ex-military) came really close to opening one as well.

Here are a couple of examples:
