Someday, an RS6 Avant+
If things do go bad, there's a good side to this:
There are tons of women out there, and your son will appreciate you more and more as you both get older. Plus, women get a kick out of a single dad. If this sounds a bit cold, my apologies. just trying to make it better for you.
And why sell the truck for a bike? I mean, you'll have plenty of room to take your boy out, and a bike in So. Cal is a death trap.

The truck's coming along very nicely. Looking forward to more pics of the progress.
Haven't been on here much lately...sorry to hear about your situation. Hopefully it works out for you.

well i havent been able to get the truck in primer YET because of the high winds lately,but we do have the tailgate in primer. we decided to do PEARL white,so i think were going to use a silver pearl,if not pearl white. either way it should look good,well decide soon.

well i ended up changing my idea,and there will be no more flat black,i decided just to keep the grille chrome and get a billet emblem. reason being,i just ordered the wheels,and i ended up going with a different wheel.

well i just got a damn email sayin the wheels are on back order for another month,so i cancelled my order and i will prob order them somewhere else. this company seemed kinda ghetto anyway. but they didnt charge my card so thats a plus.

well i was one of the mass banned,but nothing is worth updating yet anyway...
its been windy every fuckin day so i cant get the damn thing into primer yet because its not calming down long enough and i cant get it into the booth for primer.
ill update when i get more.
ive also been busy with the new car taking it down to the dealer and performance shops for some mods.
my mom traded the red challenger in for a blue R/T classic rather than turboing it..and i traded the TL in for a hemi orange R/T myself.

well today my wife listed herself on her facebook as single.
i decided to tell her about the truck instead of suprising her...her reply was "why did u do that?" and "i dont want u to think im going to get back with u because u built this truck" and "i guess now u have 2 cars" and when i told her i always wanted to build a truck for her she said "well u didnt do it before why now?" (my reply was that i couldnt have done it before financially)..
so anywayyyy...i guess im just gonna sell this truck and either buy a bike or pay off some debts (maybe pay off my student loans) then finance a bike next year.
ill still update this thread as the truck comes along. i got the billet grille emblem this weekend.. and the parts off the car should hopefully start being painted this week,and we have a schedualed date of june 5-6-7 to paint the truck.

Fuck dude, im sorry to hear about the wife and I'm sorry you had to read it on fuckin FB. Women can really fuck with your head but try your best not to let them. My current is playing games and once I told myself screw it, life got a lot better. I am not constantly hoping she calls or texts and I am actually having fun, going on dates, etc. Sounds like you have some good plans to stay busy so stick too them and keep it up in the gym.
Another great thing to do is delete her as a friend immediately or just stay away from the whole online thing. From the sound of it you will be tempted to check her page and will continue to torture yourself. Don't do it
Nice choice on the car btw
