I have not used the Lucas interior stuff yet I have to much of the Meg's for right now
-
mmmmmm And my wife just bought a wood chipper - Wonder why?
You do not do enough work around home?

Just to be sure that everyone understands what I am talking about using. It is the Lucas Slick Mist Tire and Trim Shine. Under the hood just spray it on and let drip dry and it looks like new. Do not forget to cover the engine with a tarp. I have never tried getting it all over the engine and the surrounding area. On the tub just spray on and let drip dry even if it is dirty/dusty.

Under the hood, mine is covered in mud splats... I had it clean after my first run in, then google sent me down a damned wet gravel road the other day... I'll get it cleaned and try this, thanks!
It worked to get rid of the Georgia clay after the little run and 180 down the ditch

I just want to share something for anyone who might be interested. Last week after cleaning my slingshot I had a damp towel in my hand from wiping down the interior with Lucas Slick mist interior detailer and I decided to try it on the tub. Well I have to say even though it is intended for interior I love the way it works on the outside - even having driven on wet roads the tub still looks great. Anyway please use this thread to share any tips you might have about the products you use to keep your slingshot beautiful
So, tip of the day - if you want a beautiful a$$ use Lucas Slick Mist Interior Detailer - it will keep your a$$ looking nice and new
I keep trying other things like Top Coat and Hydroselix but I keep coming back the the Lucas products - - they really do a top notch job and for the price they really cant be beat
You should have heard me say this before. If your Sling has the black under the hood, open the hood and cover the motor and everything with a tarp and spray the bottom side of the hood with the Lucas detailer and just let sit. Mine still looks brand new (2015) and I do this about once a year. As to the black tub, I just spray and let sit and I do not even wipe it down. This is a lot easier than trying to wash under the hood and looks just as good.

My wife keeps urging me to by more ammo and it’s making me nervous!
You cannot lose on that .

Way da go Frankie55 ! Well said! It will be a great day when/if economics are taught in our schools again. Sadly they are not. I consider my self a “Smithian” considering Adam Smith’s “invisible hand” to be brilliant!
I am 29 years now in business and very grateful for the support of my family. My great grandparents came here on ships with nothing but the clothes on their backs and a dream and a work ethic. They worked their asses off in mills and built their own houses. Raised families to work hard, be God fearing and generous. They paved the way for me as I have tried for my family. My daughter now has her own business a little over a year now. She is still struggling but her tenacity is great and I/we are convinced this American imagrant family will see her American dream come true.
My dad would get his hackles up big time if someone said “well you got it easy”! As he started his first business at 55. My dad’s father used to cut tires and re-sole his shoes and do for the neighbors if any was left over in a Pittsburgh steel town. He had one shirt and pair of pants and shoes. He put himself through college and got his PHD AND MASTERS degree at the same time while working nights. I don’t say this to be “showy” or brag. Just that thank God if you really want something- are willing to put the time in, then this great experiment called America is still a place where it is possible.
HOA's are wonderful. I've been the president in four different neighborhoods. If people want to live in unkempt houses they can stay out of my neighborhood. I don't want cars parked up and down the street. I don't want crazy house colors, driving my homes value down. If you want to be unique, special and roll the dice on the value of your house, go live in a unruly neighborhood and leave us more conservative people to bask in our orderly neighborhood with steadily increasing home values. If you don't like HOA's you like chaos, clutter and disorder. If you notice that you are the one always complaining about your HOA, know that you are the problem.
Furthermore, it is nothing like "Democratic socialism". You knew you would be in one when you looked at the house. You paid to be in that neighborhood because you like the comfort and tidyness of an HOA community. You also, when buying the house agreed to the HOA monthly payments and by laws. If "Democratic socialism" is the same as socialism, you won't have a choice. You will unwillingly pay into it. You will not agree with any of it. Socialism creates chaos not the beautifully manicured lawns and we'll kept houses and security found in an HOA.
One last "pin" fuck an HOA, I have never been, nor ever will be paying somebody to tell me what to do around my house.
I would never and I do mean NEVER buy a piece of property that I planned on living on that had a HOA.. I might buy for investment only though.

If you go to post # one on this thread at least half of that list is from your area

I agree with you on this. Any changes are designed to update and upgrade the look, but are obviously a move away from what made a vehicle popular in the 1st place. The changes are usually subtle in order to maintain the character of the vehicle. Some times they nail it and sometimes the manufacturers just blow it. And then there are times where they do a total redesign and keep the name to try to attract buyers (Mustang II - give me a break!). If the brand lasts long enough, like Corvette's 66 years, the originals always gain value and appeal. Give me $70k and it would be a tough call between a '67, 427, 4-speed, removable hardtop 'vette (my high-school dream car) and a 2019, but there are 2 decades - 80's and 90's - that I wouldn't touch. Hint: the 1st $70k would probably buy the C7 for the drivability over collector value. Sex appeal is strong for me in both!
I had the 67 coupe for 26 years, then sold it. Also had the 1960, both of them red

The new SLR's come with the decorative pads

Sorry but the Democrats would label me a lunatic but if I could be king for a day I would:
1.) Abolish the IRS and institute a national sales tax.
2.) Decree the government has to have a balanced budget with a plan to reduce the national debt included.
3.) No elected official can serve more than 2 terms.
4.) Everyone on welfare or food stamps has to work (community service - childcare for those that do work - anything productive) and be drug tested - failing a test you are on your own.
5.). Legalize pot and prostitution - can’t stop it - why spend resources for incarceration.
6,) A woman has the right to abortion during the first trimester - after that only in cases to save the mothers life - case closed.
7.) Outlaw Super PACs and lobbyist
8.) The 2nd Amendment stands - criminals are going to do what criminals do - let the good guys protect theimselves and families.
9.) Implement the same laws Mexico uses to deal with illegal immigrants - Dreamers go to the end of the line on a pathway to citizenship.
10.) Lawmakers have to live under the same laws they pass for us to follow - I.e. healthcare, retirement packages.
I think I could get all that done by lunch - crawdads and gumbo!! Is that a decent start ??
Do you think you could get it passed? That would be a lot of politicians out of what they call a job. When are you going to run for President?

I have not worn a helmet in 3 years in Georgia, North Carolina, or Tenn. But most of you have heard me say this before that I always have a ball cap on whether that makes a difference or not.
Did you put a DOT approved sticker on the ball cap?
I think that all they see is something on your head

Im running the stock from tires for now, first set, but have replaced original rear tire after 5200 miles with the NITTO 315/35/R20
A word to the wise buy something that is a half way decent rain/wet tire
-
My question is what kind of rain gear are people using? I have froggs but I still get wet and they tear pretty easily. What is a good quality thats also breathable that everybody uses?
I have the Fulmer rain suit that I bought in Maggie Valley 2 years ago
