Good evening everyone! It is good to finally sit down and cruise the MCF a bit. It seems like I have going full throttle at work and at home for the last week Crazy busy. They actually expect me to work hard here lately and not use my work computer for play! HaHaHa its all good though.
My Monte is closing in on 100k. I really want to get another daily driver and park her, start some customizing! Maybe soon.

Good evening everyone.
Didn't have a good night last night, went to Kingston to meet up with the wife after work and take her out for dinner, then went to leave and I was ahead of her. Pulled up to a stop sign and went to drive, got about 5 feet and then had to let off the gas and the car wouldn't move any more, well technically that is not true, it would roll just fine, but wouldn't move under power. So $200 later got it towed home, thankfully I am friends with the tow company owners wife, other wise it was gonna be double that, and heard word from the shop I had it taken too and the transmission is shot. They want 1700 plus taxes to install a use one, but I am not going to pay that much, so already found a used tranny and gonna do it myself this weekend with some help from a few friends. Needless to say I was not in a good mood last night lol, first time my car has ever let me down far from home, when my starter went at least it was in my driveway lol. I can't really complain with 296 900 kms on the original tranny I honestly have no right complaining, but the car is in way too good of shape to not get it fixed.
Other than that I hope everyone else had a good day
