Default No Longer A Coyote Owner

Been working out a deal over the last week to sell my car. Because of everything I have going on right now, it was just best to get out from under the payment.

On Friday is was picked up and headed back to Miami to be with it's new owner. It's not wearing on me as much as I thought it would, but it helps knowing that the new owner is an SCCA licensed driver, and that my car will become his racecar to be used at Sebring and other road courses.

Now I have a couple of years to figure out what my next toy will be.

It's just a car and there is lots of other cars out there to enjoy as well. On to other things!

Ugh.

If you think getting married and buying a house is expensive, wait until you start having kids. They are amazing, wonderful, challenging, and all consuming. See you in about 20 years.

LOL. Hopefully something cheap will find it's way into my garage before those start popping out.

LOL! Kids are expensive, but it doesn't mean you have to give up your passions and hobbies in life. There is always a way, just have to get creative.

I spoke with an old guy with a 1957 Corvette last week.

He was telling me all about how he bought it in 1960 from a young guy that needed the money for his upcoming wedding.

They crossed paths again ten years later, and apparently the marriage ended up in divorce. He missed the Corvette, but not the wife.

Good luck!

I'll take that story with a grain of salt.

It's been said that every man needs 3 women in his life:
An English housekeeper, an American cook, and a Japanese wife.

Sadly, the best that most of us can get is a Japanese housekeeper, an English cook, and an American wife.

I sold my first Harley when my son was born. He's 10 now and I have the 5.0 and a Harley.

Good things come to those who wait!

It was when I first got married and had a kid that I had to give up my 88 Fox Body 5.0

Now kids are almost all grown and I'm on my 2nd wife and have another 5.0 to obsess over. More money to spend on it too.

Nearly? It killed your car guy spirit. You're home jerking off, playing with kittens and just trying to piss off your neighbors with that ridiculous stereo!
