Thought of the day.

Yea Max, put your current place on the market, it will sell for more than you paid for it in this market. Then if new place has the room but not garage, include cost of new garage in house mortgage.

Plan is actually CLOSE to that ... but with a twist. We owe basically a VERY small amount on this house for people our age (like, real low for the house). So the plan is to tackle the FULL mortgage in the next 6-7 years, flip it at this point (as Fred pointed out, for way higher than paid at that point), give back from the sale the amount lent to us by family and the rest, HUGE deposit on the next house OR house build. I estimate doing that we would be getting around 100-120K of deposit on the next place, which provides a considerable cushion to do exactly a house like we want (or buy something that suits us) AND build the garage the way I intend it to be !!

A man with a plan!! sorta!

You Guys are Definitely in a Good Place. Stay on Track and next place will have a Dream Garage. She can design the House, and You the Garage, Your "He" Shed.

Lotto Max Jackpot was 50 Million last night, that would build a Decent Garage,

Go for it Max, but don’t forget to enjoy all the time in between ?

Sounds like a good plan. Remember your garage will ne et be too big. Lol

Amazing what happens to cars that are not subjected to the Shit on our roads in the winter.

Guess someone went shopping for new wheels and tires at Taylor Ford this weekend.

 

[2001BlackGTvert]

Man that sucks big time.

Saint John Nissan got hit in the spring and got them off of some Z's..
some pretty shity lowlifes out there

Haven't seen this stuff for awhile, was pretty bad up here some years ago.

Item of choice a few years back was pick up truck tailgates. Word is that Organization from Montreal was coming down with semi trucks and hitting Dealers in the area in one night then would disappear. Suppose wheels are too much work and time ??

 

[2001BlackGTvert]

I have seen videos of dealers being hit where they hit 20 or so vehicles in one night and left them sitting on blocks. Sad where we are at in society.

A set of 4 Locking Nuts are pretty cheap. My 17 inch BULLITT wheels are locked.

 

[Ohtobbad]

few years ago, local Ford deal was losing 20 to 30 k in wheels and tires.
far more common than most people know, even with cameras, they need to be caught red handed
to be convicted, the law favours the criminal.

My new truck, does use a key to luck tailgate, ( most forget to lock.
it locks with doors when you hit the lock button, kind of slick I think.

 

[TrueBlue02058]

I imagine that the new GMC Tail Gate that folds out will be popular among the Thieves too.

 

[SilverGT]

I would think Taylor Ford would have had lock nuts on their car but a mechanic told me if he can't find the key vice grips will do.

especially with the built in seat and hand warmers.
