When I was 13 - my parents bought a jalop special brown ‘81 Fairmont wagon - brown interior, 4 speed manual. While they were signing the papers, I spent my time sitting in the Fairmont Durango they had in the showroom. Loved it the day I saw it, love it 40+ years later.

New York not on this list?  Well, go fuck yourself!

I immediately thought the exact same thing.

And on a lot of newer cars, you can’t even SEE the alternator, so labor is going to be crazy high for what used to be three bolts and a connector.

So true, I had to replace the alternator on my 2008 Venza and they have to drop the engine to get to it, $1300 for that one. My power steering needs to be replaced soon and it’s the same situation.

A weekend and a $100 Rock Auto gasket set had it sorted and it was pretty flawless - slow AF but flawless until…

Does anyone actually read the details in the auction? “Run and Drive” at Copart doesn’t mean shit.

Yep. For Christmas a couple years back I got a bulk pack of the specific kind of fuzzy catnip balls that my cat likes best. 95% of those balls are now hiding under my fridge, stove, and couch, but it was such a fun Christmas morning dumping the balls all over her and watching her go into a frenzy trying to chase…

I’ve always liked these, just not at $9000 for 20 years old.
