Why stop at one? Mortal Kombat II arrived a few days later. Same smaller Arcade1Up cab but plays the games perfectly (also has Joust and other games).
These things are fun to play, don't take up much space, and are way way way cheaper than the pinball machines

Also the most important part. Miraculously Tommy had no injuries, just cuts from all the glass!

He hasn’t wanted to talk about it but I asked him how a NASCAR crash felt like…into the wall rolled once, every piece of bodywork on that truck is a mess. Four airbags saved him.

Wow. At least I was going slow (off-road) when I rolled my Jeep. Double check and ensure he is not injured, maybe in a couple days. He could be blocking the pain kinda being in shock with what happened.
 
I purchased 89 octane gasoline. :wtf:

My first fill-up for the new truck. My tank is 33 gallons. So glad I didn't talk myself into getting the TRX and financing more without the 0% promo.

Couldn’t find a 1500 with everything I wanted and a 33 gallon tank. Not sure if I’ll replace the 26 down the road.

The lots were empty around me. 3 dealers wouldn't budge off of MSRP for anything on the lot or for a custom (sold) ordered 1500. I did find one local dealer that gave me 7.5% off MSRP for an ordered truck, plus I got the $1750 in rebates when I took delivery. I ordered 11/1, got my VIN 11/3, and picked it up on 12/20. I think my order moved through fast because I didn't get the 12" screen or the pano sunroof. I was happy with the 8.4" screen.

I only wanted the Big Horn with the Blind Spot monitoring/Cross Path Detection and the LED upgrades but they were not available for the dealer to order. Because of the chip shortage, RAM remove BSM and CPD when they renamed Level 1 and Level 2 equipt group packages to Level A and Level B on both the Big Horn and Laramie early last year. They also renamed them for the Rebel but I think they lost power-folding mirrors and some other things. I ended up going with the Laramie which got the Level 1 and 2 groups back about a week before I ordered. I was able to get Level 2 which included BSM/CPD and the Laramie came standard with the LED lights.

I'm really happy with the RAM. I needed more rear-seat room for the kids and Carvana gave me way more than any dealer would for my 2011 Tacoma.

Got these from Amazon (pic shows casters already swapped out) - ohman what a difference, like going from never maintained ABEC3's in worn out 72mm wheels to new ABEC5/7's in 76/78mm wheels (for those of you who roller blade/hockey)!

Haven't tried it out yet but the gyroscopic control feels promising...

Curious what that Tacoma went for. I can’t believe what the insurance paid for my 2016. 37,935. That is only 3K less than I paid for it 5.5 years ago…only had 68K miles.

I got $22,900 for it. Double Cab, V6, 4x4 with the TRD Sports package. 79K miles on it. The Interior was mint. No mechanical issues. Exterior has some issues. Peeling clear coat on one of the plastic fender flares (the other 3 were starting to show signs of peeling), dented rear bumper (I backed into a light pole concrete base at 7/11), and some minor scratches here and there. I bought it new in Oct 2010. Paid around $29K for it. It stickered for $31,900.
 
I’m not a car guy, but I do know that used cars are commanding crazy prices. My brother in law was floating the lease on his father in laws Toyota Camary. I was told that the buy-out was approx $13k and the dealer bought it back for approximately $23k to $25k. I know other people in the biz echoing similar situations.

CRAZY…. Inflation, no?
