Dang I didn’t notice the hood and fenders until you said that!
Yeah already half planning a trip back but gonna focus tuning efforts on buddies Denali. Doesn’t mean I can’t do shock tuning tho!

Keep your mouse on the 19 second mark and just keep clicking it to watch from :19 to :20 repeatedly. Look at your fender gaps, the tire hopping (and slapping), the front sheetmetal jumping, the lack of weight transfer, etc.

Gotta hate them, I think I’ll just mute notifications I don’t use fb anyway

People suck.

I posted a set of tires a few months ago. Took all kinds of high-quality pics: Shiny penny in the treads, head-on shots to show the depth, the date codes, the one with the patch plug in it... everything. I wasn't hiding anything. It was a full set of usable tires for $40. $10 per tire- half the price of what the used tire shacks sell for. I was even offering to meet up within reason. I just wanted them gone ASAP.

After ignoring a few generic "Is this available?" replies, a guy replied telling me how badly he needed them but was 30 minutes away. He asked if he could be at my house in about an hour, would I take $30. I said "If you come to me this afternoon, you can have 'em for $20". He then wanted more pics taken and sent as I was on the phone with him to prove that they were current pics and that the tires were real. I told him the tires were still leaning against the wall of my shop just as they were within the previous hour when I posted the ad. I sent him pics as requested. He then called back to tell me there was a huge nail head sticking out of one of the tires and asked what else was I trying to slip by him. I showed that it wasn't a "huge nail head", but the cylindrical shape of the plug that perfectly coincided with the patch to which it was attached. It was worn perfectly even with and even blended in with the tread. It had been there for ages and was driven on for thousands of miles. It, nor any other tires leaked nor did they not balance. That plug was mentioned and clearly displayed in the ad.

Anyway, this went back-and-forth over a while. I ended it when he made it a racial thing- He "didn't want no white man takin' advantage of a black man in need". After that, I told him my tires wouldn't suit his needs and I hung up. My next reply to him was a video of me chunking the tires into a roll-off dumpster at the house being built next door to me. That was satisfying!

(Yes, I got permission from the contractor. He built my house and all the houses on my street and has let me dispose of larger items a few times before. He's a car guy, too.)

These are the reasons I don't sell my personal things. I sell shit for a living. The last thing I want to do is mess around with people wanting something for nothing. I've given, donated, or trashed everything I don't need in the last 10-12 years of my life. No stress and if it's free, they can't complain. I also got burned so many times buying used, I avoid it if possible. Time is money and I don't have a lot of either so if I'm spending my hard earned dollars, I want to know it's worth it so I try to buy new. If I can't afford new, I rub my pennies together and wait until I can.

Dude had plenty of time to look them over. Even when I've felt burned buying used wheels, I can only blame myself for not inspecting better before I handed over my money. Can't do everything for them

That is genuinely hilarious and made me feel much better about ignoring the guy!

I’m gonna try to edit that second into a slow morning clip

I’m a hoarder that prefers to let other people hold onto the stuff while I hold their money. I hate throwing something useful away it’s a problem.

I have tossed things in the same manner! Feels so good!

That call you the phuckhead when you won't let them take advantage of you.

Your absolutely right I’m just soft


Another guy legit got mad at me because I updated the ad as sold when I sold them. Last I heard from him he said he “might” be able to make it at 5pm to my work after I told him I will be home at 3 and he’s gonna have to drive out there if he wants to meet at 5. I never got a response after that yet he wrote paragraphs about how I’m a terrible person for selling it out from under Him.

It's like we talked about. It doesn't hurt so bad after the first time...
