I don't know if it's still around or not (@Hellcatcfp can probably tell us) but there used to be this paper in SoCal called "The Recycler". And there were ads for people selling everything under the sun. There was a "personals" section too, and back in the 80's and 90's it was full of ads for women "seeking mutally beneficial relationships". Those SoCal girls knew how to make a buck or two.

I recall that Recycler as well. Locally, I remember one called Penny Saver...cars, personal ads, etc.

This is a tough one...hard to turn away with the value of the Charger being what it is...but you know with the aggressive expansion plans you've set forth...you wont be back...cost over rides..unforeseen f*ckups…..not sure what I would do...but..your minds made up..(I can tell)..will you at least write ???..gonna miss the stories..the sardonic wit..but..the Charger...(and the GTO)..are history...:(:(:(
GTO for certain. Hellcat not yet. Need to know more about the Redeye Charger. If it's a completely different animal....

So I guess you'll be driving the Expedition?

lol, that's one of the arguments for the sale. I drive it almost all the time anyway. Charger doesn't get thrashed or even washed like it should.

EL with the extra 18-24 inches is the best in breed. With the kids, it's really the only way we can go anywhere all together bc of the adult size third row.

As much as we hear @Magnified stories here wow........what do we do now:unsure: uhm nope have to
sell the wife or kid or dog or a lung or hey wait a second how about a book. And yeah the “Hellcat Adventures“ hmmm never know Amazon does sell books:unsure: Lets see how many sales to save the Hellcat....damn it’s possible:whistle:. Well hell screw it sell it and share your road adventures with buying a Pinto:geek:
Funny you should say that. I actually have 3 books in partially completed form. Two history, one fiction, but can't ever finish, no time. But back in the OLD days, when I was just buck crazy (and I mean NUTS) I had four folks tell me I needed to write a book. I pretty lucky to have made it past 35.

Mmmm. You need to add 7,200 square feet to your home. Huh. Given that my wife and I are massively comfortable in a 2,400 square foot house... I don't know how a normal person is equipped to help you make your decision. Comparing storing 2,400 square feet of stuff and a 2,400 square foot garage without a Hellcat to having an awesome car you can drive at-will... I dunno. Doesn't seem right, but it's your world.

As for the business expansion, well, I've always understood that shouldn't be dipping into personal resources.
lol, anguish, thanks for that man. :) You're right, I don't NEED to add that much to the house; that's what I WANT to do to add to house. One of the things we do is build buildings and I always look at it this way - get every bit of space you think you'll ever need or want or use when you build from the start - adding it later is much more expensive. And there are complications with our location and slope (west texas is mostly flat and that messes with peoples heads). It will probably be pared down, by half or more; but somethings gotta move. Thank you for your input, seriously.

My wife is pretty freaking hot. ................. Well, now that I think about it, she's kind of high maintenance too, but not like a Maserati or like that.

Magnified, do I have the perfect deal for you...my Trackhawk.

It'll fit you perfectly as it also has too many doors, and non-round headlights.
Best of all, nobody will think you bought it at a used taxi auction.
