40k over 25k

Low 30's unless you're buying an MR. My car had every option for 34.

I bent the offending part of the hose clamp back a bit, its a tight spot so some JBweld and post-it notes will have to do for now. There's a napa very near my office, hopefully this holds together.

Know how and the tools to do something are two very different things.

There are jobs that I did on my X that would've been cheaper to pay someone to do it because of the tools i had to buy.

You pay for everything with either time/money. No way around that. Some people prefer to spend their free time not wrenching on cars. If i had unlimited tools i would do a lot of stuff myself. I love working on cars.

I park in a ramp. I can get away with a few things, but not much. I wasn't thinking about having a car hobby when I bought the condo.

I heard he helps people with their cars, but when he needs help working on his he makes his wife do it. ;)
