Mine will not load. But looks like a right hand drive 2 door raider?

You didn't. I bet money you didn't.

[thestealth] It's not every laborador-sized mammal that gets a damned APC named after it, but the Honey Badger isn't your typical member of the Mammalia class. He's a brutal, vicious killer who kicks asses, never backs down, never registers fear, destroys everything in its path and then adorably trots off into the sunset with his prey in his teeth and the severed nutsacks of his enemies still gripped between his dagger-like claws. It's a badass animal.

[thestealth] just like steve

That's an old quote from an old thread.

Whenever you use forceful and overt verbal persuasion to try to convince others to see things your way, they're probably not listening to what you say, Instead they're looking for every error in you your logic and mistakes in your facts, all the while constructing counterarguments. Worse still, they don't merely believe you're wrong; they need you to be wrong in order to protect the status quo. And since the final judge exists in their own head, you lose every time. - The Influencer
Is the level of bullshit you have to go through to change things in a direction you want, less than than or equal than the level of current bullshit?

I really really don't like how I look here (I rarely do), but Vira insisted I post it. :p

Dunno how long this link will be valid, but give it a try.

Highlights:

2014 Z51
15xxx miles
7 speed manual
2LT trim
10 speaker Bose stereo
No nav (this was intentional)
HUD
Memory/heated/cooled seats
Mag ride

Been searching for a few weeks, then finally found this one and had it transferred from the Chicago area. It got here yesterday, and we were able to go finish up all the paperwork tonight. I decided to STFU about it and just wait until I really, actually went through with it.

I'm still kind of in shock. This is so different from what I'm used to. It's going to take my brain a little while to recalibrate to it so I can really explore what it can do.

Nice choice, and a solid set of options on it. Cool!

Thanks! It was a tough choice between white and gray, but I just love how white+red+black looks.

Not quite. I sliced a tire on the Audi at some point in the last week. I'm waiting on some used replacements to show up :grumble:

Vira wants me to try to sell it privately. Probably won't happen before Jan 1, but I'll give it a shot. On Jan 1 I'd owe another year of property taxes on it (~$450) so it needs to go before then.

I've been over paying, so I'm a couple grand ahead of what I owe even if I go flip it at CarMax.
