A bit over $400 for a new dishwasher; I installed it myself. $60 for a tank of gas, with $.50 off per gallon.

Pretty decent sized list from yesterday, was too tired when i got home to get to the pc to post it last night lol


Jet Torque wrench
Bosch 1300 OBD scanner
"Big Red" Low profile jack
Mastercraft air compressor
Stanley 122 piece Black chrome socket set
New pads for the van
Correct brake pads for one of my mountain bikes
a Raleigh touring seat for one of the bikes
Impact socket set
LED Headlights for the van


And the largest item of the list being a 2022 Supercycle Rush 29 Dual suspension mountain bike which is the one i got the seat for as i find standard mountain bike seats uncomfortable.



Other then that about $140 in fuel between the van and C10 truck. Insurance for both and paid for various bills.

New bike needs new mods. Order oil cooler and grip puppies for the KPX250. Still trying to decide which bark busters to buy. My wish list is getting longer every time I go on Amazon. It's an addiction I tell you. lol

A pair of old Suzuki 185 2 strokes sight unseen for $150. Picking them up on Sunday, guess that's when I'll find out who got the better end of the deal........

Water pump, timing set, and timing set gaskets for the Wrangler. Gotta replace the radiator, may as well replace that crap at the same time. Using my excessive amount of hotel points, it cost me nada.

Manual fuel petcock for my Savage. The factory fuel petcock is vacuum operated. The good thing about it is there is no need to manually turn off the petcock after riding. The bad thing is that a simple problem like a vacuum leak or worn out diaphragm can leave you stranded.
This is one of those mandatory mods for the s40/Savage.

I found out from Soviet Steeds that the Mothership (Irbit Motor Works America)in Redmond, WA was selling painted sheet metal parts for 75% off. Got a sidecar fender that I don't need to paint for $109 shipped. The fender itself was only sixty nine bucks, the rest is shipping and taxes. Better price than anything I could do from Putinland.

HCTRA sticker so I can take toll roads (I only take toll roads when I'm running late).
I paid $15 dollars so I can pay $1.50 toll. The tolls were supposed to stop when the toll road was paid for. Didn't happen.
