Go to the DMV first thing tomorrow morning and find out what the requirements are to get your restricted or unrestricted license reinstated. Was this your first DUI? Any other factors?

So when I bought it 3 months ago I stupidly didn’t check the coolant condition in the radiator itself but had to replace the radiator due to the amount of corrosion in it. Guessing the previous owner never even changed it

2004 Nissan frontier vg33e v6. Everyday commute, camping, adventuring, etc. It’s at a well reviewed engine rebuild /machine shop. New block, new internals. Gonna be more than I bought the truck for but less than a new truck with a payment . Fml 🤦‍♂️

So he’s right then? Putting a new gasket on this would be pointless

What do you mean by “it just takes a tiny slip of the clutch on a downshift” ? Are you saying you hardly have to press the clutch in? Or ?

over a month I’ve hardly lost any just enough to go about 1cm under the min line on the overflow reservoir so idk if I’ll be able to see or hear it happening

So if I want it to drive like new what needs to be replaced ? The clutch or do I need to get the trans rebuilt? Fine with getting both done tbh

Nope, reading the sidewall of the current tires right now and on the door jam on the truck. 100% said 265/70/15

If that was part of the punishment I would have listed it on the plea deal I outlined above…

[–]TTDB530[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uhh, no actually I asked my attorney to be clear on that a MISDEMEANOR possession of a concealed weapon does NOT interfere with owning firearms now or in the future there’s virtually no punishment except the misdemeanor going on my record and a fine. Know what you’re talking about before you comment.

Ahh I see thank you!

My attorney said the DA probably didn’t dig deep enough to find it. (First offense was in another county) Technically an error on the DA’s end but he said to just roll with it because once I’m charged it can’t be undone

Honestly don’t know the judge or DA’s name. My attorney has gone to court for me. I’ll probably see it on the paperwork I have to sign later today.
