Default The reason for my absence

So I have been gone since about February. Maybe that is because I can't get my Red RD to start (wiring issue) after adding the supercharger or maybe because I have been crazy busy.



In my absence I have obtained the best mod ever for a car.



https://www.hyundaiaftermarket.org/f...5624_thumb.jpg



I can fit both cars in there and a motorcycle and still have plenty of room left over. It has hookup for a garden hose and it is piped into the house heating and cooling system (although not the greatest setup). I haven't gotten a chance to play in the garage since moving in but compared to my apartment it is awesome.



I have power, lights, radio, some temperature control and no one to b*tch at me for doing whatever the hell I want to my cars.



And the garage also came with this house thing that has rooms for eating and sleeping and stuff. But that is all boring.

Awesome!

I got one of those recently too

Best mod ever. Only draw back is it does tend to be a money sink, thought it also much improves working in the rain or on colder days.





Congrats man, enjoy

Yes I am a home owner. Was a foreclosed property and sat empty for 3 years. Getting to the garage won't happen until it snows sadly. I'm in the process of changing the grade of the lawn on three sides of the house. Completely gutted the kitchen and an rebuilding that. Added a 240 outlet in the basement so I can take up powder coating. Its a money pit. And a worse one than my Tib, but like my Tib I don't care.



It is good to be back though.
