The struggle is real!
Doing driveway rebuilds is getting old! I need a shop!

Re: The struggle is real!
Yup. I started working on my own truck a lot more after I got a garage. No fun working in the driveway (or, in my former case, the street).

Re: The struggle is real!
I have been working under car covers for what seems like forever! Laying on damp ground, welding while laying on a small piece of plywood on damp ground, you name it! I feel the pain!
