Funny Father story - when mine was still alive - be bought a blu-ray player. The reason? Because he kept accidently buying the blu-ray version western DVD's from the bins at Wal-Mart, so he just gave up and bought a cheap Blu-Ray player. Of course the non-high tech redneck that he was - he could not get it to work. So I went to set it up for him and it had some weird wiring deal (I can't recall) because he of course bought the $17.59 blu-ray player being the tight old man he was. So I say - Dad, give me the receipt - I'll take it back and get you a decent one and pay the difference for your tight ass. He gives me the receipt - it's not on there. He'd only been to Wal-Mart once in the last month, so this was the right one. As I got questioning him - he used the self check out. LMAO - he didn't scan it and walked right out with it. I had a good story for the returns lady...........

unluky, let's hope your username doesn't come back to bite you...those employees at Walmart are on top of their game, right? Perhaps sell it on Facebook, Craigslist or eBay and then go back and upgrade!

Shame, my roller stool craftsman was like $30 at ace hardware and is super comfy to sit on. Now that my sons JCW r53 we bought as a project 3 weeks ago runs right with no check engine light, I removed the non working MINI iPod adapter to get the factory Sirius back working on it and installed an aux jack last night. On the way back from returning him to his mom’s for the week, I stopped by Walmart and got a 3 foot aux cable, lightning to headphone adapter, and this $10 magnetic /pop socket mount that comes with two plates, small for iPod and larger for phones. In addition to the non-working iPod adapter, His car also came with a pre broken MINI accessory cup holder, so I used the remnant as a base and removed the threaded stud part from the vent mount. Combine the two and… Tada! A useful upcycle that only cost me 15 minutes to make, $10 in parts and at least looks like it’s conceivably a period dealer accessory.

I bought a 14" diameter bar stool pad off Amazon and it fit perfectly and makes it much more comfy. Still, for that kind of money, you'd think they could have included more padding on an otherwise rock solid stool.

I know it says no weapons and with my inept home gardening and cleaning skills these might be skirting the edge of that limit but I'm testing the mods.

Also bought my airline ticket to Thailand next January. Dayum prices have risen. But I found one non-stop from Vancouver and had to try that. One looooooooong (15 hours) flight versus two long flights.

I'm happy with this model but thinking I maybe should have gotten the one 9291 with the diamond quilting as that can lay back like 180 degrees where this one is like 170. I sound like a diva I know but still it seems cool. This model does have perforated holes which I think could be good if it's hot and not sure If the other model has that.

I have a CJ with the 304 and 3spd. Renegade version that had all the best options at the time. Hate the thing and wish I could sell it. But it's been in the wife's family since new so I'm stuck keeping it. I've driven it maybe 200-300 miles in the last 10+ years, wife won't drive it. I even paid for a restoration of it thinking I would use it but never do. Main reason is its exhaust burns my eyes. I've thought about getting cats put on to see if it would help. It's gone up in value so much I think the wife is close to letting it go.
Like you said older jeep parts are cheap. Easy to work on as well. I drive pickups all week long so I think that kills the fun for me. |
