    Yea Eddie,we're already using it for our own vehicles,and letting the big trucks stay out in the weather :ohmy: It does have a beer fridge already,but we still need to build "the office",meaning the A/C'd place with the TV :lol: It's gonna be great,and we'll use it more for our personal vehicles(Jeeps),than for the work trucks :woohoo: Still pretty cool :P

    All right, enough is enough. You are just spoiled, spoiled, spoiled.

    First the patio that looked/looks like heaven in and of itself.

    Now this. Life just isn't fair. The only thing I can say is there aren't enough toys on the one side. Jeeps don't count.

    Now I can't figure which one I would want to take home with me. I'd love to have a car lift.

    Pretty impressive!!!

    Ok Love the old red truck hidden in the corner and Neil wants a two post so bad he can taste it. when he built the new garage the roof is raised so he can put one in. but right now that 3 cars is housing 5 cars so no room to move GGGGRRRRRR I keep telling him if he got rid of a few he could get his lift and have room to move in there.

    "We just happed to work on alot of toys"

    That, I believe!!! :laugh:

    I am jealous of the shop and can laugh at this. At one time when the kids were younger if I changed all the spark plugs in the motorized toys for our somewhat young family I would have had to buy 136 or so spark plugs. Wasn't too long after that I came to the realization one can really have too many toys. Yes, I love the shop. If I had a hitch on the car... :)

    Speaking of cars (Jeeps), have you ever heard about a Death Wobble (DW) on Jeeps??

    It has something to do with the front end. I am not sure if the DW has to do with just lift kits or on what model of jeep's.

    I have been trying to solve a different problem on my G. Cherokee and came across a thread.
