Just read that thread. Absolutely make sure you remove the wheels to wax them, get Lloyds mats and, most importantly, get cup holders.

If you spend any time in C7 Gen there you'll find out that most are garage queens that rarely get driven. They think that makes them more valuable as an investment. I got threatened with a ban for typing "It's a depreciating Chevy, drive it."

Just don't paint them white, that'd be racist.

(as written to my fam)
Cancer Info:

Quote:
High dose intravenous vitamin C, which targets and kills BRAF colon cancer cells.
This is the only treatment proven to kill BRAF colon cancer cells and it isn’t toxic to the liver or any other parts of the body.
(2 weeks later)
We have been going to IVC every day but it has become too much at this point for Hunter get to the clinic so we are arranging to get a home infusion company to administer the IVC to him here at our apartment. We are also going to try to get him ozone therapy which has proven to be effective for cancer patients.


My cousin died yesterday morning at 4am.
They did not seek conventional treatment.
IMHO--these guru treatments sound great in theory, just not effective in the real world on humans.

Use this info to help yourself, or your loved ones when selecting cancer treatment(s).



I wrote about this before in this thread.
RIP Hunter.
Hunter and son.
