I watched a reality show about this guy that taught a cooking class. Thing was he got all his ingredients from dumpsters. He didn't reveal this to the students until after they cooked and ate it. Reminds me of you.

Weak excuse. Bette start the hiring process again. Try to be more selective this time.

We have no competition.

I don’t know the deal about 47 ronin. Seems there would have been more.

Alt changed in record time of 1 hr 45 minutes with a beer brake. Roddy was flying, slinging shit around.
Polished the headlights and changed a fog light bulb while on the lift.
Lunch then change a hub.

Your opinion of:
an 05 Coupe' De Ville, white, 4door, grey interior, N*, 160k miles.
$2500.
For a teen = new driver


Big sled with no power? (I hope)

Big car, piss poor brakes for the size. Expensive to fix if pay someone.
Engine has plenty of power to get into trouble and they handle horribly on turns(plow big time).
Mine will light the tires up.
Bad gas mileage as a teen gonna keep foot on go pedal(under 15mpg i bet).
Not really a car I'd start a teen on their own in unless very responsible,
Good price even for those miles unless beat down.

I'd look for a buick/gm with a 3.8 from 2000's as they're cheap good mileage and easy to fix or replace engine even.

She already bought it for her datr.
I had to explain Cadillac tax and the value of conversation before purchases.
Car is in great shape cosmetically.

I'll be the repairman I guess...
Replaced 6.487 miles of vacuum line, and windshield squirter hose already.
Not gonna polish headlights, will buy new.


What's good tune up parts for better fuel mileage?
