When do you expect the new house to be complete ?
Mark, the home should be done by the end of June so I will have a place for everything I own instead of having cars all over the city and in different states. But I don't mind sharing the showroom at LMR with RC, since his car is always there when mine is....lol

Decided the Patio was going to be the smartest investment at the moment. So I'm starting to look at contractors to have a nice Patio and Outside Kitchen built!

My weekend was pretty chill. Had some drinks at a few places Friday/Saturday night and sunday just cleaned up around the house.

I really need to finish up my truck to sell it and get it out of my driveway. Last couple months I've been thinking about selling the BMW and jumping into a C6Z. I bought the BMW b/c I wanted to try something different but now I miss having a real car. So we'll see..

I have a friend who went through a similar situation. He sold the C5 Z, jumped into an M3, and then wished he was in a fast car again. lol
