What did you buy this week?

[scootr]

I just bought one of these last week. Haven't had a chance to spark it up yet. Figured I'd better get one before the 2 stroke police outlaw them and n California.

Problem I'm seeing now in CA > try to buy a carburetor or fuel pump for yard equipment and they say can't ship to CA just like an extended magazine, WTF ?

Ran into that myself… it’s not only paints, pesticide, generators, outdoor power equipment but now it’s the parts being targeted…

California’s loss is a boon to Carson City and Reno business…

Be careful running illegal parts across state lines. They will have dogs trained to sniff out the parts.

Everytime I see a fresh restored muscle or classic car I ask where did you buy the paint and it's always a souvenir brought back from vacation.

I did bring home a gas can once...

Weeks been a doozy, almost $500 for hydraulic hoses, $350 for a spin trim, and today the electric PTO clutch failed on the JD X 500 Riding mower quit all at once, almost like the lining just came off, local JD dealer will have the HD clutch tomorrow but I had to pay a bit extra.

Not really complaining, It is the best rider mower we have owned and at 900 hours probably not unusual to need replaced.

I ordered another 18 loads of mason sand.

I've done 25 loads already in the past 3 weeks

Gas, groceries, beer and lottery tickets!

 

[Too many Kubotas]

I tried to buy a '68 El Camino, but failed.

[Too many Kubotas]

It's okay.

I need another car like I need another hole in the head.

 

[MossRoad]

hahaaahahaha

When it comes to cars, my wife and I have always had a pair and a spare, but now we have an extra sitting next to the garage. And almost enough parts to build two 71 Toyota LandCruisers. And a motorcycle. Yeesh.

 

[Too many Kubotas]

Oh, I can relate, especially to the "pair" part.

We have one each Ram 3500, Challenger, Challenger GT, Ram 1500, Can-Am, and HiJet. Then I have other vehicles, and so does she.

Just sold my Jeep and some $8K in various parts, but still have enough left to build another one.

Now maybe it makes more sense why I really shouldn't buy yet another car. I'm already buried in maintenance.

I bought a $16 bottle of K-seal from Advance auto on my drive home from work yesterday. My 2005 John Deere 4120 tractor was starting to loose a little coolant and I feared the dreaded “timing cover” sealant leak. A “proper” repair of that, at the dealer, would likely cost in the neighborhood of $ 6k in today’s dollars.

So far, after roughly 10 operating hours, it seems to be doing the trick. Not sure what I’ll do with the $ 5984 that I saved on the repair. Maybe an Alaska vacation.
