Someday I hope to have a job where I make enough money to afford a garage. Then I will no longer have to lay under my mustang on rocky ground with sand blowing in my eyes ears and up my nose. A garage with a complete assortment of tools like the ones the shade tree mechanics on TV have. And a lift!

Man your lucky. I would love to have a slab of concrete to work on. It is not to much longer until I finally get out of college and hopefuly get a real job. I'm planing on becoming a teacher. I know it doesn't pay much so I might never be able to have the garage of my dreams but I'd be estacic if I had a concrete driveway and a little shed big enough for a bed and a TV.

heh. I'm fantastic. or at least my garage is. When I did my suspension last weekend, I was so glad to have a garage. I couldn't imagine having to work outside in the sun, even on my paved driveway.
