2nd Gen R60 Countryman Most liked posts in thread: Porkchop, ModFather's R60, things may get out of control again...

Nope it sat filthy in the work parking lot again. [emoji20]

 

Tell me about it Don! On the bright side, I do have a good friend that works for Southwest... So I might be spending V-day in Alabama. [emoji2]

Love the yellow quote. [emoji6]

 

For the first time ever, I am having trouble deciding what way I want to go with the modification process on a car! Its tricky trying to pick things I want to do without screwing myself out of having a multifunctional all purpose car.

Yeah I would love for the Porker to sit lower, but I will be going over some light off road camp trails...

Everybody wants more power, but what about keeping things reliable...

I could add a bunch of cosmetic stuff, but without changing the ride height its like putting lipstick on a pig...

I have an idea of what I ideally want to turn the Porker into, but its just keeping the functionality aspect, and keeping things somewhat discrete thats bugging me. Normally I buy a car/jeep thingy because the factory built it to be good at something that fits me, and I make it better. The R60 isn't tied down to only being good at one thing though.

I have a feeling that as my ownership of Porkchop progresses, things are going to get a little unusual from what people normally do when they mod a MINI. But, if I can pull off making it into a true multi-role vehicle, the end result might be interesting.

 

Dont know...

Computer still says "Waiting for YouTube" WTF?

 

Yeah now all I am getting is an error message... Better luck later.

 

The old duck call in the blow off valve trick, love it!

 

Yeah the first year in CO is always ridiculous! They add all kinds of taxes and fees... Next year they should only be around $600.

 

Yeah, I cant negotiate price with the state, it is what it is... But sooner or later I can move!

Think thats bad... Average rent for a single bedroom apartment in the far out Denver suburbs is $950- $1200 a month! When I was stationed at Ft. Campbell it was $400 a month for a 3 bedroom house!

 

Yeah we get taxed for EVERYTHING! Not sure what the state income tax is, but yeah we have to pay it, along with public transportation tax to run totally empty busses outside of the city for 12 hours a day.
All the money made from the pot tax hasnt changed a thing in my wallet... Still broke, and getting broker.
