Decided to start working on some side projects for my BMW since I'm still missing some key parts to get it running.

Built myself a nice small wideband display that can be integrated into the stock dash.

I love showing up at various facilities to pick up large objects and when they ask what "we are loading it into" and I reply.. "a Miata". I just don't tell them I have a trailer

So far I've done the work bench, a very tall storage cabinet, a large roll around tool box, a complete set of patio furnature, several full loads when moving, a full load of plants and landscaping supplies, people (great for haaaaaay rides) and wheels/tires. This damn trailer has paid for itself about 72 times over.

Why not just remove the door and use a comealong (wrapped all the way around the car) to secure the load?

Pretty cool. My friend makes widebands out of the mpg gauge or something on his E30.

It definitely will blow your mind if you're a feeble brained gullible idiot.

I finally got access to the truck earlier and got it. The ******* truck was apparently there all day, the person who I was told was borrowing it, never picked the ****** up. So I fucked around with this all day for no reason. At least I cleaned the grocery bags worth of cedar needles out from under my passenger seat while it was out, and also finally got my *** around to locating my passenger floorboard leak and fixing it. I already knew what it was, just too lazy to reach under there and plug the hose back onto the nipple.
