OT 16: The Fax Man Rage'th.

Scheduled the GTI for maintenance on Wednesday. Service manager gave me a cheat sheet and taught me how to itemize the maintenance so I pay less, since the maintenances are usually bundled in a flat rate. Didn't even have to buy him a trip to Bora Bora either. My SA is 5/7 as well. She always lets ...

OT 16: The Fax Man Rage'th.

Pay now or pay later, be it counseling or legal fees. Also, the above bolded statement on point as always: We have two Ukrainian princesses clean our place bi-monthly for $100 per visit and it's blissful. My wife insists the house is orderly for our cleaning ladies. I don't try to understand it, bu...

OT 16: The Fax Man Rage'th.

Side note, my wife is lightly medicated for her anxiety and life is waay better for everyone. If one or more people are struggling in a relationship I'd say don't wait, take drugs!

OT 16: The Fax Man Rage'th.

Faxman, FWIW, during my half a century on this earth, the only real solution to housecleaning issues is hiring it done. I read your bit about untidiness being the issue but cleaning people fix that too. Also, women typically clean up for the cleaning lady because while your woman has no problem wan...

Obligatory C5 Thread

I found a local rear end shop that knew Corvette diffs and brought it to them when I was doing the clutch. All they charged was $500 labor plus the cost of parts. I bought the gears through them and bought new C6Z output shafts, pinion bearing, clutch packs, and all new seals through eBay. They gla...

Johnny_P's Street Parking Palooza

If I drove it more highway miles, I'd be using the brakes even less per trip :notsure: what you're getting at here.... Your TDI brakes lasted what, 80k miles IIRC? My GTI was on its 3rd set of pads by then. City life brah. You come to a full stop every 300 feet. I come to a full stop from around-to...
