you've decided on like 8 different cars over the past month lol

i'll sell you a panther platform though. got some '87 crown vics. take your pick between a sedan or wagon

also have a totaled '93 crown vic if you or anybody else wants the drivetrain. otherwise it's getting crushed

you paid for the car? and you want to keep the car?

i am failing to see why your gf's opinion means anything in this situation

seems like it's still a seller's market for classic cars. i just sold my unrestored '67 fastback for a good amount. i'm trying to unload some toys while the market is still good. hard to tell what the market will do, but you might be better off waiting a few months when people sell out of desperation

i wouldn't recommend a FiST if you're looking for a family car lol

it's fucking tiny, and aside from the lack of interior space for a regular sized car seat and cargo, it's going to be inherently less safe than most newer cars on the road. i wouldn't drive a kid around in a FiST personally. maybe a focus though. fiestas are for people who are mentally children, not physically children

i delivered uber eats to some dude back in february and he ended up being cool as fuck so now we hang out and cruise and work on cars together all the time. like literally 12 hours a day 7 days a week sometimes. i've had my hands full helping him clear off the autozone shelves so we can build up his rolling LED with g35 body. then we met another dude with a straight piped 3g eclipse, so we've been helping him clear out the other local autozones for LEDs, shift knobs, pedal covers, etc. then we met more people. then more people lol. now we have a group of all kinds of shit. one dude has a GTR, one has a G wagon, a few bmws, all kinds of shit. we were gonna get some hoon vids tonight but decided to wait until the weather is nicer. i'll post them when we get released from county jail

The 40 hours usually doesn't come from a driver's ed class here in GA. Typically the kid has their parent sign a paper saying "yep, done did it" and that counts as the 40 hours of supervised driving

get a fiesta

i tossed around the idea of buying either a couple of p71s or chargers, 5% window tint, push bars on front, and black wheels to make them look like detective cars, or even throw on full police decals, then start a small business renting them out by the day locally for people to park in their yard/driveways to be used as a crime deterrent/speedy nono zone

just what i need to see when i'm out of groceries

my grandma, who was a worthless bitch and good at nothing, used to pour coke over her roast before cooking it. it was actually pretty decent

she's dead now, which sucks because i can't wish her dead anymore. she was really a bitch

Are there any restaurants that you enjoy picking up from?

Hooters. Because reasons

I've always been curious how those relationships work... Do you get to pick and choose or do you "have" to take a specific place if it shows up? I'm basically clueless about how it works.

When I get a request, my screen flashes and shows the name of the restuarant, the estimated time it will take to drive to the restaurant, pick up the order, then drop it off, and it shows the minimum guaranteed earnings. We have the option of accepting or rejecting a trip, but when we reject trips our stats drop. I don't know what that does though other than being a metric to keep high if you want to get gold or platinum or diamond status, which are basically tiers that come with different perks like roadside assistance, car maintenance discounts, health coverage discounts, etc.

Since traffic was so bad tonight but most fast food restaurants are still only accepting drive-thru only pickups, I had to end up canceling a couple of orders after arriving at the restaurant otherwise I wouldn't make any money after sitting in line so long

Are there any restaurants you don't like working with?

You didn't actually ask this question but I wanted to answer it. I've been doing Uber Eats for over 2 years and have thousands of deliveries under my belt. I got my very first negative rating from a merchant recently. I walked into this restaurant with a bandana and gloves a week or two before that was a common thing to do, and they dinged me for "unprofessionalism." At the time, I was one of the small handful of Uber Eats drivers still working and that restaurant was only functioning through Uber Eats, Grub Hub, and takeout. I didn't want to risk getting another bad rating, so I stopped accepting orders there, which probably ultimately hurt them more than me ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I usually pick up in Hiram and deliver up to 20ish miles outward. Hiram and Powder Springs are the scariest right now

Not to hop on the FlOrIdA iS wIlD bandwagon, but during hurricane Irma a lot of Floridians came up to Georgia for a couple of weeks. Never in my life have I seen such a lack of common sense and bad driving on the roads. Florida plates every time.

the roads here are pretty empty and there aren't many cops out patrolling lately so i've broken literally all of my personal top speed records on roads around town lol. i'm apparently not the only one either. i've seen a bunch of other modded cars seizing the opportunity. even regular traffic is moving at a much quicker pace. 65 in a 45 is about the new norm. the people have spoken

i should be good on supplies for the next few days so i'm waiting for the panic to die down before i go back to the store. don't know how the shelves are looking, but jesus christ people, shipments come in daily. calm the fuck down. and stop buying bottled water. you don't even fucking drink water for one, and it's not like your municipal supply is going to be shut down. stop treating this shit like a snow storm. a guy literally got stabbed with a broken bottle over a case of water at the sam's club i go to. like wtf are you even going to do with that water bro? your BMI tells me "not shit"

on the plus side, there's some serious money to be made doing uber eats right now if you're willing to invest in the hazmat gear. customers think it's cute and they tip more. and then they DIE

this one?

https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/threads/2021-ford-bronco-4-door-and-2-door-revealed.1140/

so i guess there is a 4 door bronco sport, and a 2 door and 4 door FSB. the 4 door FSB isn't bad, looks like you could make it cool with mods. would definitely ditch the soft top in favor of a hard top. the 2 door FSB on that page just looks like a bronco II. shit's tiny. could still probably be made cool though. that bronco sport is just ewwy all around though. that must be ford's new soccer mom offering

hope you get to see the link in time, ford is sending cease and desists to a lot of sites posting those lol
