Mitsubishi Pajero NT 09 (diesel). She’s as clean as a whistle (apart from needing a suspension upgrade), just put her in for a once-over before the big holiday driving starts. Usually, I do something like this myself, but my calendar is a little full at the moment, and to be honest, I felt like being lazy.
Car has been dropped at the mechanic, now to chill (aka freak out because what IF something is magically wrong with it) for a few hours since old mate reckons it’ll be done by 12pm.
Anyone else strip their car before dropping it at the mechanic? Was on the phone to a mate while I pulled all my 4x4 recovery gear/tools, first aid kit, little knick knacks, and my current car-drobe out and he thought I was being weird.
I just feel weird about someone seeing all that stuff even though it’s just normal stuff to have. Plus you know clumsy hands might start gropping if they get curious enough.
Can’t stop thinking about my upcoming holidays!
Also regrettably said yes to my workplace’s Christmas party, I’m new and need to mingle and handshake even though I don’t want to.
Just did the weekly shop, and jesus fuck! At this point I’m seeing a $20-$40 per week increase, and that’s with substitutions for lower priced items or just plain going without.
I feel like I’m going insane when I see an item I bought a week ago suddenly double the price.
Did the adult thing and booked the car in for a little service before the holidays start and I’m doing lots of big trips. Got quoted $400 for the whole thing, but everyone knows that’s never the end figure. Also, know they are going to say the shocks and suspension need doing, but it has to wait because it’s having a face lift soon so I’d rather do it then with its updated weight.
She’s a bit moist! Guess it’ll be indoors activities for me today 😪
