Thanks.

It's a 2013 VE Commodore SV6 Z Series.
Only a 3.6 litre V6.
AU$14000(US$9800) with 105,000km(65243mi) on the clock.
I wish I had the money for a V8, but I'm trying to save money to buy a house.

I had to get a new car because somebody ran into the back of my last car.
Insurance company deemed it uneconomical to repair.

Nothing a set of twin turbos wouldn’t fix...

Picked these up at HyVee today, the red one is going to get theme painted (it's red plastic w/tampo print graphics) now that I know what my Sister is carrying

I bought a 1/2 scale gas powered car.



Forgot to get a pic of my actual car but this is close enough.

My stepdad bought his 95 Miata used when it was a couple years old and had 50k miles. In the following 20 or so years, he only put on about 25K miles, gave it full dealer service, and never let it get wet unless it was getting washed. So this weekend he says "know anyone who wants a Miata?"

Me!

So I get a pristine car for a great price and he clears out garage space to hunt down a Jeep CJ like the one he had in his younger days. Win for everyone!

There is a place a couple of towns over from me in Windham, NH that deals in used Miatas. I also found a place near the Seacoast that specializes in old Brit cars like MGs and Triumphs. I would like to look into one of those as a project/toy when the kids are out of the financial picture.

I sent that pic to a friend and former coworker that I've been going out and bashing as well as crawling with lately and first response was "Finally, a proper box." He has been telling me that for years now though, usually is was some sort of pouch or small tool box that will fit inside that top box to haul my R/C tools around.

I also made that cashier laugh when I told her that I had just tagged along with Dad to just pick up those blades, you can see how that worked out.

That cashier has seen your kind before haha!

Yeah I have my main toolbox that I take and keep in the back of my vehicle as well as a smaller pouch that I take on the trail. After carrying my trx4 about 1/4 mile thru woods and streams one time after losing a wheel nut, I said "never again" lol.

I bought simple 3 3/4 Auto Meter Tach, Model #2300 for my 91 Chevy K1500, the hardest part was finding the coil wire to get signal too the tach and finding the Dimmer wire, so the Tach back lights when the headlights come on, the rest was pretty easy and looks good to me

After going through a couple sets of different bluetooth ear buds, and doing a bunch of research, I finally broke down and bought a good set. They were on sale last week, so I figured why not. Should have just done this to begin with. Tiny, lightweight, very comfortable, 5+ hours on a charge, case will charge them twice before needing charging. Good sound quality, great call quality so far, and a nice feature called hear through which uses the BT mics to let you hear your surroundings (traffic, sirens, etc) while listening to music. I used it on my run through town this evening, and it works fantastic.
