On topic,

Call yourself stupid so I don't have to remember to later on.

Two econoboxes makes zero sense.

I don't consider the creamsicle an econobox. I consider it an always broken piece of shit. To me, it makes sense to buy a car to drive during downtime. You should know all about that with your car Jay . We just seem to have a difference of opinion as to what a good daily consists of.

We can go from a roll or a stop. I can chirp all 4 33's from a dig and from a roll it's even nastier.

I'll take the motor off your hands.

My definition of a good daily: Something that's reliable, ICE cold AC and heat that will burn you up and VERY comfortable.

If the MkII jetta or w/e can tow your civic to and from a track day then it's all gravy.

1) You need more than a truck to tow a car, and I don't own or plan on owning a trailer anytime soon.

2) My car doesn't stay running long enough to make it to the track.

3) If I ever did decide to go, I've got enough friends to handle getting my car there and back without the need to drive. Then again, I don't mind the drive and probably wouldn't trailer the car anyways.


Maybe I should just take the money and build a motor.....

Ha. I appreciate the plug man, but I'm already getting buried with this shit. I'm asking about $850 less than what I owe. I've had tons of interest, but no one has showed me money.

Damn if I didn't know any better I'd definitely say that's a scam, but glad everything worked out for you.
