Oh I give him shit all the time! He can drive it in an emergency, but I have also enacted a new rule for all my vehicles, no one drives them but me, and maybe 3 other people that I can think of. EVERY SINGLE TIME I lend out my vehicles something comes back broken. My dumbass brother broke my swing out tire carrier, old man ripped the shitknob out (then had to call me to ask how to open the fucking fuel door ) and a few weeks ago we took my truck to the airport and a friend drove it back. Now, picture this, I'm getting on a plane to fly to Cali to build a few cars, I know my 7 needs a ton of work when I get back, my mothers truck threw the code for the camshaft position sensor 2 days before I left and I get a call from my friend as I'm sitting down on the plane and the stewardesses are yelling at me to turn my phone off... he's in my truck... broken down on the side of the highway, in a tremendous amount of traffic.... apparently the truck just stalled out and wouldn't restart. I told him that the AAA card was in the glovebox if she didn't start, 100 mile towing for a 25 mile tow, leave me a msg as to what happened. I get off the plane in Cali and the msg says, "I dunno, it stalled out, I tried to start it twice and the 3rd time it caught and drive fine all the way home." She's been fine for a month now so I bust his ass about not being able to properly drive stick and flooding the girl out and just pissing her off in general becuase he can't work a clutch

Thanks man! There are a few dings around the car, the paint is chipping on the bottom of the wheel wells in the rear for shit being flung up, there is a chip in the door, and apparently I didn't seal the plastic behind the rear wheel well enough and it absorbed some water and is starting to bubble. Little shit but there's enough little shit to make it a big deal for me

Tell me about it! Fucking blows!!! I've been doing everything I can but there's on;y so much I can do from a phone ya know? If I was closer I'd just drive down there, get my shit and finish it myself with a few local machine shops and just pay out the ass for it to get the damn thing done. I will say though, Todd B hooked me up with a waterjetter and it LITERALY took us longer to get the files to open than it took them to cut 6 custom wheels and ship them He got the files Thursday night around 4, and by Friday @ 11 o'clock they were cut and ready to ship! I wish everyting went that smoothly
