Man you guys are fucking depressing. Try to help someone out and I'm a dumb ass. I can't say you are wrong.
And everyone, do you even read the fucking English language? She is a caterer.....she makes real money how else does she have 15 grand.

Fuck all you guys except Apex and Brad. I LOVE this gif. Z?

We have a dogsitter, Sarena.....she stays at our house every time we leave for the reasonable sum of $50/day. She is a caterer by trade, and always makes yummy stuff for us to arrive home to. Sarena drives (until 2 days ago) this blue VR6 MkIV Jetta.........a cool car in its day, and still a cool car if maintained. This car is SO BEAT......desert burnt paint, and the VR6 has had a death rattle for more than a year...I am always :amazing: that it is still running. Finally 2 days ago it died. I have told her for a while that she should expect this, and she has been saving.......her car budget was $15K cash. She wants a biggish CUV.....a Toyota Highlander class vehicle. The problem is that Toyota Highlanders under $15K either have 125K miles on them, are 10 years old, or both. So today I send her this....

https://sandiego.craigslist.org/csd/cto ... 91498.html

I ask her can somebody drive her down to Coronado? No. I say fine, tell the guy we'll be there at 11. (I always need to visit my ex brother in law in SD, probably to to lunch with my ex mother in law).

Now I am getting peppered with all these questions. Lady, your car is BLOWN UP. You have NO CAR. I found you a BEAUTIFUL, completely loaded CX-9. Hard loaded brah. Every option. With 61K miles on it, California car. I'm even bringing my ex brother in law, an auto mechanic, with a scan tool. She will absolutely love this thing. Just STFU, and go down and buy it. Jesus. :tits:
:rolleyes:

thats a great deal. I'd have bought that for us over the MDX even with the black leather.
Thank you Brad.

My tiny ass street strikes again. At least it’s quiet here today because of the 10 ton road block.

Don't like the angle in the second pic, but you can't deny the fucking attitude that car has.

Yeah they kind of attract people that refer to engine size in cubic inch, LSDs as "posi's", and who think the strength of a diff is equal to the number of bolts on the cover. Or just :mahtroy:

every single one here, is piloted by a youngish (25-39 year old) "minority/majority" dude, with a fade, windows down and mufflers chopped off, frequently they also feature tattoos of their baby mommas on their forearms, which are visible as they stick out of the window....

Just a shit group to be part of...
