Sounds like a great and relatively cheap solution to our entrance/exit problem! Unfortunately, installation will have to wait for warmer weather, so sometime next Spring or early Summer when the weather is warmer. However, I wrote down the addy and will see if "wifey" will go for it.

Thanks, Chuck!

 

Nope...cement/concrete curbing.

 

If you do a search for curb ramps you will find many solutions. Although they aren't inexpensive.

 

All the above ideas don't work, tell her that the repair costs come out of her paycheck not yours and don't negotiate. It does work.

 

Or tell her she has to drive a MINIVAN.

 

......and that’s why California sucks.

 

I was just looking up gasoline taxes and Pennsylvania has the highest in the country. Whoops, one article says Pennsylvania is the most and another says California.

 

And our roads are better than Ohio and California.

 

We're expecting the first significant snow of this year over the weekend, my poor MINI lives outside, along with the wife's Allroad. I keep telling her we need to build a 20X25 annex on the back of the garage so I can move all my car stuff in there and she can put her car back in the garage, but so far she's not having it.

 

Actually, the tires were 8.4 years old but had nearly new tread since, with 3 MINIs, I don't drive the S in winter much anymore. Even so, that said, the guy who installs my tires was pretty leery about installing them and told me they might last thru a snowless Winter. Fat chance, with our on and off OH winters, so I was on the lookout for decent snows, bought them and had them installed yesterday.

 

An old Russian trick to improve the longevity of tire tread is to put the tires on the roof for a year before mounting them.

 

Nyet!

 

Me and a couple of other MINI drivers got up at the gawdawful hour of 5:00am and met up someplace in the outskirts of town, then motored in together to downtown Vancouver BC to deliver some toys to the annual Christmas Wish toy drive. We had breakfast together and then went our separate ways.

 

Does he have those for sale?

 

He got them from RoadieDesigns.

Take the MINI oil & dump it in the truck. I'm sure it's good enough.

 

Looks really sharp! Was it hard to do?

 

what is up with those non-GP taillights????
