I am vehicle shopping also and can't find what I want locally. What site have you been using to look around? Are you planning on buying something that you haven't test driven/checked out and ship it to you? Not sure I could do that. I would hear my dads voice screaming in my ear if I was to consider it.

I would get it inspected remotely. My dads bought several cars and had them shipped...but he always exaggerates numbers and ease. (i think it's genetic)

I'm using cars.com and ebay motors. I'm getting financing through my credit union and am looking at a Toyota Tundra. fug these small cars. fug them in their butts.

lol...I am dying to get rid of my truck but can't find the car I want at the price I want. I'm tired of paying for gas when I get 14 mpg on a good day and as much driving as I have been doing it is costing about $75 evry 4-5 days which is costing me almost $500 a month. I'm done with trucks for now at least.

So is there an independent company that inspect the car for you or how does that work?

What kind of truck do you have, JR? Our F150 gets much better gas mileage than that.

Hey Panthro, can I interest you in a K5? You might can afford the gas no farther than what you drive a day.

I would have been interested a few years back but I need something more corporate-ish and that I can drive for 10 years.

I'm looking at an 07-08 Tundra with about 50k miles.

I almost bought a Tundra. Fuggin loved 'em. Test drove several. Ended up buying a Nissan Titan instead because I liked the body style more. I fuggin love my truck.

Not sure about shipping. I like driving shiz first, new or used.

      So how about the Mondays after we lose? Because those Mondays after the Jags, Pats, and Bills games better have been run suicides until your legs fall off...

      Trade deadline

      Saints trade WR Shaheed to Seahawks Seahawks get: WR Rashid Shaheed Saints get: 2026 fourth-round pick, 2026 fifth-round pick Seahawks' grade: A- Saints' grade: B+ One of the NFL's hottest passing teams just got better. The Seahawks currently rank third in EPA per dropback (0.25) and first in success rate on dropbacks (53%). And now they are adding Shaheed in a move that makes sense both on the field and in terms of where the Seahawks are as a franchise. Shaheed, 27, is averaging 1.8 yards per route run this season. But I think that sells him short because that number is down a bit from his career average entering this year (2.0) and he's been playing a role that includes running fewer vertical routes (34%) compared to last year (44%). Shaheed also has consistently posted above-average open scores in ESPN's receiver score metrics, including a 63 this season that ranks 28th among wide receivers. As a complement to Jaxon Smith-Njigba, I expect Shaheed will run downfield more often and be a bigger threat in that role than rookie Tory Horton was. When Cooper Kupp returns, he and Shaheed will make for a nice pair of secondary threats behind one of the best receivers in the league in Smith-Njigba. This is the time to strike for the Seahawks. FPI gives Seattle an 84% chance to make the playoffs and a 5% shot at winning the Super Bowl. This addition helps boost their chances without mortgaging their future the way the Colts did in the Sauce Gardner trade. Shaheed is a pending free agent but given the leverage of the moment for the Seahawks and their need I think they ought to be plenty willing to pay the cost. Shaheed is young enough to where if Seattle doesn't retain him he should sign a free agent contract that would yield Seattle a compensatory pick -- if the Seahawks don't nullify that pick with signings of their own. Because the Seahawks currently have $79 million in cap space next year, per OverTheCap, getting that compensatory pick is not guaranteed. The Saints are not rolling in cap space the way the Seahawks are -- and thus would land a compensatory pick for Shaheed -- but they got more draft capital this way than they otherwise would have. Considering New Orleans' 1-8 record, this should have been an easy decision.
