Not like you're any better. You've been here multiple times and never came to say hi.

You all are odd like that. Devin moved into town so I stalked his pictures to figure out where he lived and just drove by a couple times till he was there.

Then we became great friends and he even lived with me. Still keep in touch to this day.

How do you not want to meet each other?

I've met with Reno Steve a few times honestly part of it this time was there's not much we could do. I'm not eating in restaurants, and the forest service roads we went for a drive on last time are all closed due to fire danger.

Pffft. The last time I was there was to finish the blue stealth and drive it up. Didn't have any spare time. Haven't been back since.

When I initially got the car they tried to get you to come out.

I've only met dirty Steve up here and he is the only bawcer I've met. Each time it's only been a few min, usually to buy something off each other or have him work on the truck.

Haven't met Jenny, reno Steve, Ryan, or Chris even though I've driven through Sacramento many times.

Just not who I am really. Not the type of person to hang out with people. :d ontknow:

Even friends from the gym or work I don't hang out with outside of gym related or work functions.

I met a few of you. Since I moved here I’ve seen Steve once cause he grabbed me a hitch but he had shit to do. Did have a beer and some amazing brisket when we came visit before we moved though.

For a fresh rebuilt subi that will give 100k miles with little to no issue that’s not bad. If you were buying to sell it then yeah that sucks.

Yeah but I have no idea how many miles are on the bottom end... Honestly I'm somewhat tempted to get an OE short block but that's another 2k :eek:

Can you do a fresh hone and rings with new bearings? That would basically be rebuilding as it doesn’t need to be balanced because your not changing anything.
