This is exactly the kind of place I would want to visit and spend money at, with a side benefit of avoiding totally unaware people who think they don’t have to abide by the rules the rest of polite society has agreed upon. You know, little things like looking up at your server, saying please and thank you, staying off…

Fixed. 

haha, love that! I’ve likewise received a couple of “receipt autographs” over the years. lol Thank you again for the fun stories. 

Miss me with that kind of “magic” please. 

You made my morning. 

I really enjoyed the stories, thank you! I still have many great finds at local antique vendor malls, I rely on the vendors to have a good enough eye to recognize quality in pieces they pick, but not necessarily be experts in them all as you suggest. Have made some good picks that way. I will find something like a…

Thanks, I always found it interesting how on TV they play it off like everything is off the top of their head. lol

I’m far from wealthy but I generally have no idea what day it is. 

I forgot about those, I had one too! Mine wasn’t quite like this, it only had the hands and no digital readout.

Mine was used in one of the scene transition segments where they quickly cover an item, in my case the guy…

They should hit the Carl’s Jr drive-thru and call it a night. 

“...we like using a noisy restaurant as an excuse to say absolutely nothing and eat a meal in peace.”

I still have an original QuickSilver brochure this company sent me as a kid. I also have a few other oddball brochures like the last edition Lagonda and another from a custom limo company that did everything from Jeep Grand Wagoneers to Maserati BiTurbos.

That sounds like a very solid choice. Classic. Well done man!

I guess that exhaust leak is pretty common. Congrats man, enjoy it!

If you ever get the chance to drive a Toyota version it’s like night and day. I call the LX 470 the W140 of SUVs. 

LX 470 is the correct answer here. To paraphrase a popular saying, the Disco will get him to the mountains but the LX will also get him back home.

How long ago did you buy your Cruiser? I looked at most of them in town a few weeks back helping a buddy get one since he liked my LX so much. Ended up with a silver 2000 MY Cruiser, but second consideration was the black ‘06 or ‘07 that Jordan motors had.
