Looked inside, clutch master is not leaking or wet. Going to watch the fluid level, at half now, over the next few drives. Can anything else leak in this system? 03 Touring 6SP. I also noticed the squeaking noise under the car is back when pressing the clutch pedal in, and has been for a few days on that end. Not sure if it is related or not.

So I never got to negotiate a price for it.....he said he got $1400 for it.....and I have a friend that see's the Rockriver AR's fetching $1700+ on Texas Gun depot . com so he really didn't hold out for what he really could of got.
I guess all the stuff I helped him out with over the years wasn't worth much to him after all....so I guess lesson learned....Don't help others that won't return the favor !

Nuff said !
I don't know too much about guns so take this with a grain of salt, but I thought the RRA's were lower end AR's and usually went for like $800-$1000, or have prices just gone up that much?

Since the Sandy Hook tragedy prices on new assault rifles have doubled and you can fetch a decent markup on selling a used one. If you're working a deal with a friend though, at least be clear and honest.

I drive 12 hour days back to back on the way to school every time. I've found it's not the time you spend driving, but rather the traffic. I'd drive from LA to El Paso any day over driving between LA and the Bay Area. I-5 makes me rage like no other road.

I guess after being a paramedic for so long I hate driving...we worked 12 hour shifts x 4 days and since it paid crap you always picked up OT. So I would work 6 days essentially

Just curious to see if anybody would be interested in buying some Rear tires for pretty cheap.

They are Hankook V-12's 275/40/18's with 5/32's on them.

I'll let them go really cheap....if you know someone then PM me, or call me if you have my digits.

I can supply pics if interested.
