    Back Again, not that I ever left

    So wanted to wait, but the excitement is killing me. Came home for a funeral and found out I am getting divorced. Will be finalized end of next week. Thanks to my wife leaving me, I now have the money to buy a marauder again. Not just any marauder, my marauder that I sold to MGDriver. He has been amazing and is such a great guy that he is letting me buy it back. He tried talking me out of it and said to buy one here in the states and that I could get a better one for the same money. I told him it wouldn't be the same. Too much sentimental value and love into that car. So he is going to be buying one from here in the states and shipping it over. He wants to try for a red or blue as there are none in Europe, so if u have one for sale for a good deal, hit him up. So excited!!!!! Will hopefully land in Germany Saturday the 28th and will be in my name hopefully the 30th!!!!!!!! My divorce gift to myself. But will NEVER sell her again.

    Sounds familiar. My Mustang's original owner's wife was the driving force behind him having to sell and replace with a Honda Accord. I met her - a very shrill woman - not the first marriage for either. Had it been me I would have kept the car! Their loss - my gain.

    2019 Ranger Lariat Super Crewcab 4WD

    Military marriages suck, but now your single with a German chick magnet. Have fun with it. Don’t wait till you get to the US to boost it because boost gets laid.

    Doesnt make sense to boost it now and then motor swap and boost that. Want to upgrade everything else to make sure it will handle the power. Then getting completely different engine and trans
