  To get the garage or not to get the garage
Posted by: LorenaBeana - 05-21-2005, 12:47 PM - Forum: Lounge - Replies (11)

So I now have a new apartment in Durham, NC, into which I will move in July. But (excitedly bites nails)...I can get a garage with it!!! So...pay the $80/month for a rather pitifully stocked garage with the potential to be an awesome garage (Daddy loves to get his favorite daughter tools) or save money and do repairs the old fashioned way?

(I did find a cheapy $100 air compressor today at Costco, and then I can get a heavy duty jack and be pretty well off. This is way too exciting!)

  xbox 2 - hijacked to general video game thread

Anybody pick up the new newsweek? It has a picture of Bill Gates on the front w/the next xbox. Its featured in an article inside.

Im almost positive this was a newsweek since I believe my family doesnt subscribe to any other magazines, and i saw it on my counter last night. Anyway Ill check for sure, but just thought Id post something for you guys that are looking into it. I didnt get a chance to read it yet, but i will do so tonight and let you all know what it covers.

Doesnt look like much..but these are a set of 1985's finest windshield wiper arms off a buick grand national. These will fit my car too, and i picked them up for 34$, and they are normally 50+ each. Gotta like saving

  Hello!
Posted by: H22coupe - 05-19-2005, 09:37 PM - Forum: Lounge - Replies (33)

Hey everyone, I am a senior in high school and am going to attend JMU next year. I am excited about Madison Motorsports and everything you guys have going on. I do have a few questions though. What do I do my freshman year when i don't have a car? Can i get a car my secound semester if i have enough credits? Thanks

I am also really excited about some autox, I have never done it before. The only thing going on down here is drag racing, which is fun, but autox will be much more of a challenge.


  Save or Buy
Posted by: damnit458 - 05-19-2005, 05:09 PM - Forum: For Sale/Trade, WTB - Replies (23)

As ive said in previous threads, Im working fulltime for the Gov this summer. Anyways, I did the calculations to figure out how much ill be making for the summer. By the time I go back to school Ill have pulled in just over $6k gross, for three months worth of work.

Thus my question. Ive wanted to go the EG swap route for as long as I can remember, and still really want to. However, the amount of theft in NOVA disgusts me, and I hate to buy a car that will cost less than insurance will be for it in like a year and a half time period. Thus, a second option ive been tossing arround in my head is saving up this summer and the following few years and picking up something nicer. Assuming I do a good job here, which I think is a safe assumption, I will be able to work here every winter and summer from here until the end of college (probably about 2-2 1/2 more years). Starting next summer Ill rise a grade from 3 to 4, increasing my salary past what it is now. Hell, the last intern was here for 3 years on and off in the summer/winter, and he got offered a fulltime job at BLS after he graduated.
My point is thats a lot of money over 1-2 years, perhaps enough to put a down payment on a nicer car, something I wont have to upgrade as much, and something that will last me longer. So what do you guys think? I know ultimately it is what I want, but its always fun to hear all of your opinions. I figure theres enough of you that have been through both options to be able to look back and decide what was the better idea. Thanks in advance Big Grin
