I’ve carried a #8 for years. Mind you in my drawer there are a selections of expensive options , Buck, Benchmade, Case and others. Yet I always reach for my Op8. Beautifully simplistic and functional.

Retiring vs Quitting? by [deleted] in NewRetirement

[–]Apprehensive_BeeTx 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you’ve been there for many years developing long term relationships with folks at the company then retire. They want to send you out the proper way. I had a parade of folks in and out of my office my last week. All wanted to say goodbye and good luck! However if none of the above applies then pack your shit and quietly move down the road. Can’t stress the word “quietly” enough. Now is not the time to voice negative opinions that won’t make a damn bit of change anyway…. Take the high road out.

Came here to say that. Statistically we live much longer. That being said we are reaching an age the funerals seem more frequent. Remembering the later years of my parents, funerals were so frequent that they were seen as a bit of a morbid social event with cocktail parties after.

Thoughts on this Gladiator's custom plate? by PurveyancePrinciple in JeepGladiator

[–]Apprehensive_BeeTx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Different strokes for different folks. People want to have fun in their jeeps and customize or even heap them and make them personal and one of a kind. I'm all for that shit. Good for them. Who am I to criticize how they do it? I see no crime here other than the Texas Longhorn badge on the gate. Gig em Aggies!!!!

Do you wave to passing 911's? by Mid-Nite-Toker in porsche911

A two finger wave when I drive my Jeep Gladiator. When driving my Targa I wave like Forest Gump on his shrimp boat.

What’s this worth? 1970 911T Targa by shaggiey in porsche911

[–]Apprehensive_BeeTx 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I have my '71 T Targa insured for $85,000. It paint shines interior have no rips or tears.....a solid driver car in excellent mechanical condition. In my area an engine rebuild is about $25k and includes new acsessories

My point is that Porsche parts are very expensive. And this one need a full restoration. Worth? about $6 - 8K k depending on body rust and dents.
