I will admit that I do keep thinking about putting my NRA Benefactor Life Member sticker on the ZR2 just to people around here.
It's something I come back to every few months, but I know I live in the land of POS pussies that would get out of their Nissan Leaf and hit my cars with an environmentally friendly, zero carbon footprint baseball bat in a parking lot and run away before ever saying anything to my face.

They'd probably vandalize your truck. Its just not worth it IMO. I dont broadcast anything on vehicles. People are insane enough and I want to avoid them at all costs.CorvetteWaxer wrote: ↑Fri Apr 27, 2018 10:09 am I will admit that I do keep thinking about putting my NRA Benefactor Life Member sticker on the ZR2 just to people around here.

I mean fuck... not too many years ago a dude from up here was in Los Angeles at a Dodgers game wearing a Giant's cap and was turned into a vegetable. Mental midgets are a real threat.

Same. In my case, even more so because has an expensive taste in wine (keep the cellar full) and travel. I'd rather spend money on that anyway.[user not found] wrote: ↑Fri Apr 27, 2018 10:01 amDetroit wrote: ↑Fri Apr 27, 2018 9:57 am
Today when we got to work, we parked next to a Camaro with the sticker from your avatar in the back window. loved it and asked if we could put that in the back of the truck.
I'm against stickers, otherwise I would. People completely underestimate the cost of children and often forget that it's a choice you make. If you don't want to make the trade-off, don't. It's how many people tell us how "lucky" we are that we don't have to pay for x,y,z kid shit. It's not luck, it's and
It's a conscious decision made with my own well being in mind.
Kids would kill me, financially, mentally, and spiritually. I'd be one broken fucking man.

Ive never woken up wondering why Im not a Dad. I knew in my late teens that was not on the cars. I had a cool Mom and when I discussed it with her later in my mid twenties, she said its not for everyone. Dont even worry about it!CorvetteWaxer wrote: ↑Fri Apr 27, 2018 9:51 am[user not found] wrote: ↑Fri Apr 27, 2018 12:50 am
Especially these days.
One of many reasons the wife and I have chosen the DINK lyfe.
I knew long ago that I personally didn't want to spend money on kids.
The message reads like it's a setup for a plea for donations that is forthcoming.
Was nice to feel zero pressure about that issue from her. I know alot of folks who are obsessed with it and their families pushed them harder into it. Fk that!

The gym I workout at is not at all near me but worth the ride. The owner is a way cool car guy and its near some upper end dealers. Aston is across the street and this Vanquish had nice yellow highlight trim to coordinate with the yellow brake waxable calipers!
