Carbon fiber skin for my camera. Was actually pretty easy to put on.

Awesome! The weight savings are probably very noticeable.

7 months was too long without a manual V8 in the garage. Always had my eye on one of these, but got a Camaro instead, then a vette, but at last the time has come!

It's pretty much a stock 2019 Mustang GT Premium. It was hard to find a used manual GT Premium, let alone one with the GT Performance Package and active exhaust. Lucked out and found this one equipped almost exactly as I would have ordered it if buying new from factory.

While I loved my camaro and my vette (when it worked) I feel the mustang more closely resembles what I imagine in my mind an American muscle car to be. With my limited driving time in the mustang I feel it's a lot more raw than the other 2. I think the other 2 are better handling and performing cars IMO, but they feel much more refined, which is not what I wanted this time around. This one is big, loud and honestly... it wants to kill you and everyone around you all the time. Love it!

Congrats! I am looking for the exact same config to replace my 440i and C6 into one car. But I haven't had any luck in the northeast yet, time to look south.

Arrr...Timber, mate....er, I mean Timber Mate. I'm finding it to be a PITA to finish Walnut in a way that 1) I like and 2) works in the room I intend to put it.

Not the highest quality out there, but it will surely fit my needs. Needed some more capacity, but had a dimensional constraint for its location. Ended up working perfectly - I've got about a 1/4" to spare. Got my wife's tires dialed in first thing!

Wheels will come in handy if you go the No Country for Old Men route with it.

I really wanted a more permanent mount, but now you’ve got me thinking!

Curious on how the Aeropress works out for you. Looking for a better solution for my camp. I like coffee too much to keep using instant.

And nice pipe!

Wait, that’s not weird to say, is it?

After a long weekend, last minute to flight PA, and a 11hr drive home to Charleston. Got a good deal so it was worth the trip!

Glad you finally got it! Sounds like you discovered one that didn’t require a premium?
