It makes a certain amount of cents (sp intentional).
It works fine. I took it to Seattle for Emerald City Comic Con this year. Drove it through a storm in Seattle traffic. I just don’t want it scrapped. Also, this is my TARDIS baby. I’ve helped friends move in this car. Taught people how to drive stick shift. Taken aaaaallll the parking spots no one else could fit in. Loaded her down and drove from Atlanta to Chicago. (got super confused about the time change even though I didn’t go east) Drove a baby home from the hospital (drove myself to the hospital) and used the clutch as a make shift baby rocker. God damn, if we could fit four cars in our driveway, I might have tried to keep her to teach Liz how to drive stick shift.

Sometimes, in programming, you will tell someone about a problem that you’re trying to solve. Sometimes you just have to tell a rubber duck. And in the telling, you figure out how to fix the problem. So I was the duck. Quack Quack.

Obby had work on his poker face with car dealers because apparently most dealerships didn’t know or care which bolts had limited batteries, and priced them all the same. Surely they were a little suspicious on why he was ignoring every other identical bolt on the lot.
There was one dealer in town that did know the difference and the price was higher.
