THE Random Chat Thread - AKA "The RCT" - No shirt or shoes required - Open 24 / 7

Exactly my point....I need to by that domain name. I picture something like Wikipedia.....only its called "THEY SAY. COM" What do ya think !! We will be billionaires on fake news and dumb quotes in no time !!:headbang::tongue3:

Sounds like a plan !Maybe throw in a little"go fund me" while your at it :thumbsup::treasurechest:
 

Gas prices and saving money.
Bought a 1999 Ford Lightning
Spend 48K on truck, another 20K on power.
Result was 435hp/535 torque on the dyno.
$65.00 to fill when I did the upgrades.
10yrs later $135 to fill
300km/200miles to a tank
$50 a burnout( estimated by the Mrs) :laughing7:
Put chip instead of a program in truck result of a 30km in fuel savings.
So at the end I was saving up to $13.50 a tank.
Totally justified in my mind why spending more saved $$$.
Oh I still miss the G force feeling that she gave us on a power take off.
The Mrs was good to 150-160km then the OK! That's fast enough.
After one tune, I had 240km run up going on a merge ramp onto the 401.
Trying to convince someone to part with his baby.

How about this
 

Here's my tuner's pony.

 

Strange how $$$=power, I wanted to have more power. My tuner asked for another 20K for the next stage.
Well that never went over well with the purse holder. :laughing7:
Boys and the toys :headbang:
 

Its like the Wild West days.There's always someone quicker on the draw :)
 

Goto electric cars? Watch how fast the charging costs go up. Face it...you gotta pay to play. :dontknow:

"Fuel" for thought? What if covid, being turned from people, decides to eat crude oil instead? *ALL* oil...everywhere, above or below ground.....gone! Then what?

Another thought? Gold? How much will it be worth when they start harvesting meteors that are solid gold? :tongue3:

It's all about the $$$ and what it costs. I probably have spent a mansion worth on the rides over a lifetime.

Heck in /78 I did a /72 custom fork P/U from a reg orange to a candy blue 390 to a 428

I think it was a 14K at that time.
Traded it for a /78 2 dr. Cutlass Supreme then threw a turbo on the little sleeper.

More money than brains. My father had the best quote: "If a vehicle lasted Jim 4 months-it would last a man & his son a lifetime" :occasion14:
 

Thought about getting meat chickens, the whole thing is that the processing of the bird.
There use to be a small portable processing unit, showed up $3.50 a bird.
Got the phone call done on him by a noisy gearbox and the authorities shut down yet another person who was a out of the box contributing asset.
Big eats small it seems in every way.
 

Another thing....who are THEY ?? I still haven't figured that out.
That's a very good question. I'm pretty sure "they" were not elected.
 

News flash....Jeep is dropping the name Cherokee.Seems the word Cherokee offends someone . :tongue3:

One thing about store bought chickens I've been noticing lately.Their in such a rush to get them to market they don't bleed em out good.I HATE blood in a fully cooked wing or leg

That's really not fair to the Indians.

I should import some underpowered foreign gray market POS cars, make em meet US standards, then market it under the brand name "The Progressive". Make sure they fall to pieces in less than 20,000 miles.
 

I propose a new law. Nobody can refer to another person ......by the color of their skin. In all medias! You can't say ******ant (r*e*t*a*r*d*a*n*t)...try it! Do the same for color of skin. :dontknow:
