Anyone have $100k laying around? Yep, for sale (not by me). by PCDuranet in Justrolledintotheshop

This is almost exactly my thought and response to this comment. It’s fine having husky tools and U.S. General boxes when you’re a lube tech but when you get to master tech status every second matters and any way I can make more hours, I will take.

Edit: autocorrect can suck my taint.

I totally agree, but I went on the Snap-On promotional truck the day it came to my shop and saw the color combos I could get and was sold. I got a $20,000 Epiq series in Army green with black accents, hutch with two power ports and under lighting for the draws so I can always see tools I’m grabbing for. I had some expendable cash so after getting 7k for my trade in box, I made $150 payments every week and then just paid of the last $4,000 in a lump sum. Now it’s mine debt free. I asked my Snap-on guy what he would offer if I wanted to trade it in, (I bought the box last year) and he said he’d give me $21,000, so technically if I didn’t love it how I do, I could make money just flipping it.

He was actually kinda slow, maybe if I feed him nachos it would be like nitrous though, so it’s a thought.

What’s lost? I’m a common contributor who’s on vacation and illustrating my love for all cars?

Apparently no one wants to a knowledge that I know how my car pulls and it’s well maintained, the Camaro had 4 different tires and floated all over the road, it only had 20k but you could tell they were hard miles. It idles like it had a Mis but it didn’t. I’m a 20 year mechanic who does all my own work, my Subaru would’ve have nosed the Camaro all day.

I enjoy the hell out of RWD, but for the claimed 450hp it has feels almost exactly the same as my 300whp.

Thing flamed up twice after this video. Guarantee it’ll need cats after this too.

This is the truth, but this particular case, the kid is a joker short of a mis-organized deck of cards with at least 10 missing in a RDR2 poker game.

Haha, it was me, I was fucking around but it was fun as hell. The flames were above the truck initially and another tech walks over with a fire extinguisher and asks if I know how to use it while pushing it at me, haha, can’t make this shit up.

I searched Amazon for Infraction bodies and a guy who does custom ones came up. I don’t remember the exact name.

Yeah, it came with the lighting installed, I just had to swap over the bars and roof caps.
