Marrage Derailed, SVX project going back on track.

Well, I was trying to sell my SVX to pay off bills and make a go at a family life. Now after being married less then a year, that problem is ended. I'll be moving into my own place soon and will be starting to save up money to dive back into the SVX.

All I can say is CONGRATULATIONS !!! Sometimes being free is the lesser of two evils. The SVX is definitely a worthwhile choice to keep busy with.

So Mike, everything you own is for sale?

How much will you take for the ex? Sounds like she kept you happy on at least one important level.

Just kidding Mike, I'm sorry to hear happiness eluded you both.

Get stuck into the SVX then. It will keep your mind off the other.

[for a little while anyway!]

Legally at that!

It's a bummer, but hopefully it'll work out for the best. At least you have a real woman to go back to you who won't dick you over! As for the sex, use a heat shielded condom and you should be alright.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, scotch in one hand, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming HOOOOYA !!!!!

Buying it commercially is definitely cheaper than marrying it!

To bad though, as I actually believe in marriage (between opposite sexes) as a fine institution.

Good. Lol. My gf knows I love my car more than her. She won't drive the SVX for fear that something will happen to it and I'll leave her.
