    Did some wheelin' and dealin' yesterday, a friend wanted to borrow my pressure washer. I won't normally lend it but decided to anyway as I've been kicking around getting a more powerful one. He called to tell me how great the thing runs, I said $150 and it's yours... he paused and said $125? SOLD! I bought that one used 4 years ago for $100 and probably put an additional 100 hours on it.

    Went looking for a new one, I was going to get another Troy Bilt with Honda engine as the one I'd just sold was VERY good to me. Then I saw a Generac on clearance at Menards (last one) for $299. Lets hope Generac lives up to it's name.

    So basically I went from a used, beat up Troy Bilt 2600psi to a new Generac 3100psi for $200 out of pocket. I'm pretty excited to pick it up to day and run it through it's paces.

    I just bought a second hand acoustic guitar on ebay

    Been playing a bit more recently and fancied something new, read a lot of good reviews about the Seagul S6 (made in Canada). They retail over here at around £500, one was on ebay for £200 or nearest offer, i made a cheeky bid of £150 thinking that the guy would probably come back with an offer around 175 or so but he accepted my bid of 150

    Does Generac manufacture their own motors?

    Yes, I believe so. I was really going to get something with a Honda motor like my last one but Generacs reputation is really good with generators and the reviews for this were higher than most other brands.... We will see. It has a two year warranty and I run my pressure washers hard.

    That's a wonderful guitar. I've tried a couple, and like them, but, wierd enough, the headstock totally turns me off, thus, I still have my cheapo yamaha. I've just broke down my riding mower (with 600+hrs on it) for the last time. Gave it to a friend and bought this:

    A little less than $400 of car maintenance/service

    Cooling system fluid replacement
    Transmission fluid replacement
    Power Steering fluid replacement

    And an oil change.

    Yay.

    New tires for the Camaro, and some used factory Recaro front seats for it too. That took all of my car play money for the year. Had 4 trees removed, house leveled, soffits are being replaced, house painted, then new standing seam roof. Fuck, I'm gonna have to work as bunch of ot to build my liquid funds back up.
