Re: Project Economy Slowdown
The slowdown in the economy hasn't affected my build directly. If anything it has indirectly put pressure on me to speed up my build.....
Basically, we're looking to move to TX or KS (or that area) and have enough equity in our house to buy a house there cash; but since the housing market has slowed down, that has pushed our timeline out a while, so finishing the basement isn't as high of a priority. Then, I also talked my wife into opening up the floodgates to get the truck done by next May so we can go on hotrod power tour; but now we just found out she's pregnant and will be due in March, so I pretty much know I have to get done by then. Also because of the kiddy on the way I bought a jetta TDI (1st tank of diesel was 47.4mpg) and will be selling the corvette (no back seat) so the extra left over from the sell of the vette will be applied to the project truck.
