    Solrix got a reaction from Strongit in Experiences with non-techies   
    About 2 months ago I went into best buy just to look around and I was checking out the video cards I was already looking at buying the gtx 650 ti boost and they had it in stores granted it was 40$ more than new egg. So one of the people that work at best buy walks up to me and was talking to me about computer stuff and he seemed to know a bit about computers (he built his and was a gamer) and he told me not to buy it in store and go buy it off newegg and save the money. So in the mix of all the negative story's about best buy and other computer dealers I just wanted to throw a good story out there that not all of them are jerks

    I've had a few minor maintenance projects (Car that needs to be kept running) 
    One Benz that i did some work on. When that boiled because of the m102's shitty headgasket it was turned into a major project that was later scapped as a family feud with the owners of the garage kicked me out and moved the benz out with a front loader. 
    A nissan navara D21 that i was fixing up. Moved by the same arse which caused frame damage.
    Currently driving a Mk5 Golf wagon that i won't do shit to because it simply isn't worth it.
     
    So long story short. Currently in between projects. Juggling around 40 possible projects in my head

    I drive a 2004 Honda Civic Coupe. My dad bought it so as he could have a small run-around car. It's not mine, I just use it. After about 155,000 miles it is still alive and kicking as expected of a Civic. The only maintenance I've had to do is scrape the 11-year-old tinting off the back window and buff the headlights. I expect to need the timing belt and clutch disc replaced in around 20,000 miles. The front tyres will be replaced in october for winter. I really like the car, it's nice and responsive. Manual, too, so it's really fun to drive. Just needs some work here and there. the really impressive thing is the mileage I'm getting off of it.

    Pictures will have to wait.

    They can be in any state of repair from finished to torn apart down to the frame
     
    I'll start with my 1990 ford bronco with a 5.8l v8 4wd. I got it for 500$ It wasn't running when I picked it up so I had to trailer it back home. I got it running shortly after we got it home. My future plans for it are a 3 inch lift with some 35 inch tires and a new exhaust. I have another vehicle shown towing the trailer so this project vehicle is just for me to learn some more mechanics on and practice some body and paint work. It will hopefully end with a vehicle I can thrash around off-road on some trails. 
    To anyone who says my truck is overloaded yes I know it is. The tilt trailer we used has axles very far back and the only way we could fit the bronco on the trailer was engine first. Hooked my truck up just to move the trailer around to our shop. We towed it home with the f350 shown in the back ground.
