the omni weights in at a little over 2,000 Lbs. LOL so there is some wiggle room :ROFLMAO:

The Honda element is the greatest thig ever! ours has 300K miles, and it's still in excellent shape, I take really good care of it. I need a new windshield for it now, but other than a starter motor at 280K, it never gave me any problems (knock on wood)

Yeah, Mine is a Katool 11,000 Lbs., and they have listed on their website that the prices will increase after the second week of July due to tariffs. It came in super-fast, I placed the order on Tuesday, and it showed up that Friday. I am still working on trusting it LOL. it's the first time I...

I received the lift on Friday, and could not wait, so I started the installation by myself, I was up till 1:30 AM, and I nearly killed myself a couple of times, I got most of it done, and a couple of friends came over on Saturday to help me with the top bar. All is well now, and I am super happy...

I went with regular 9x8 doors, there will be a lift in the back, the garage is 2 cars deep, so the door won't be on the way. the difference in price between getting the doors myself and getting a door company was eye watering LOL.

Driveway extended today, not ideal, but we worked with what we had, the concrete guys did a great job.

The car is a 1985 Dodge Omni GLH it has a swapped 2.5L turbo engine out of a caravan LOL makes right around 170 HP and weighs in at 1900 Lbs. (fully stripped). we haven't run it yet since we just recently bought it. A tree fell on top of it, so we got a good deal on it and a parts car. the idea...

Brought the race car inside to make sure it was happy LOL.

we are doing something similar, we are taking down the driveway 6 feet in front of the garage, and pouring a straight skirt that will angle and match up to the remaining driveway.

You're absolutely right! the cost beyond 7 feet tall is crazy! shame on me for not having done research before framing the thing. 🤦‍♂️

we finished the brick over the weekend, and the window arch and key. Now I have to get the doors, but I am having a hard time finding a 9 wide by 8 tall door that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. I saw some Wayne Dalton from Menard's, but I am not sure if they'll deliver to another state. Anyone...

Brick coming along, well have to do an acid wash to get all the mold sand off and hopefully the colors will be close.

Yes, but virginia code accepts unfaced fiberglass insulation as fire block as long as I have a tight fitting section front to back and side to side no more than 10 feet from the ground.

Also, feel free to send me a DM, and can give you my address if you are close and come take a look for yourself.
