Howdy folks. Tomorrow is Turkey Day, aka Thanksgiving, here in these United States. Tomorrow we feast, Friday we either shop til we drop, or if you’re like me, avoid any retail stores like the plague. Either way, we’re off around these here parts — all the way til Monday.
There may be some scattered posts here and there over the long weekend, as there usually is, but consider us gone eatin’ for the next four and a half days.
Enjoy your food, football, and family while we do the same. Don’t drink and drive, kept the political arguments to a minimum, and if you must play a pickup game of football, don’t hurt yourself.
Have a good Thanksgiving, and see you on the other side.

This Thanksgiving image brought to you by basic women everywhere.
Would you prefer they be acidic?

You guys are totally turkeys.
Enjoy your special day.
I’m thankful that my 90 year old mom still wants to put out a full Thanksgiving dinner for the family. How lucky can you get :)
What time should we stop by?? !!
Better make it late, she’s good, but she’s kind of slow
Happy Thanksgiving!

Whose gratitude did I miss?
Light interior colors are an all-year blessing.
I forgot DeadWeight, of course, who will be thankful for (1) the Dodge Durango and (2) every occasion on which Cadillac reports a sales decline.
DeadWeight will also be thankful when he finds out that Melody Lee has the hots for him ;-)
I continue to believe that Melody broke his heart, but he fervently denies it.
Psst DW likes Melody… pass it on…
Like her? His deepest, darkest fantasy is to take over Cadillac and get Melody in the back of an Escalade while Johan watches
Some really sick stuff
I almost spit my coffee.
THE SEA CAPTAIN: Yar! That’s gonna replace the whale in my nightmares.
I also love Melody, especially catchy one.
I bet I know your favorite song…
“A pretty girl is like a Melody…”
:)
More like:
“Take me back into that sweet sweet Melody”. I want her back, desperately.
Baby come back, you can blame it all on me.
I am thankful for clay bars and brake fluid testers and dual action polishers and paint thickness gauges and sway bar links and other acquisitions and related knowledge inspired by the B&B.
I am thankful for insight provided into all aspects of the automotive business (good and bad) by industry insiders.
I am very thankful for maintenance and service insights and perspective.
I am thankful for insights into automotive acquisition, whether purchased new at a dealer or used from a dealer or otherwise.
I am thankful for historical perspective on this crazy industry.
I am thankful that I am not in a Japanese prison.
I am thankful for all of the energy expended on political comments during 2019, which has clearly, demonstrably, directly and positively redirected the course of events in both the U.S. and Canada.
I am thankful for certain TTAC writers who continually remind me that I am a fool.
And finally, I am deeply thankful for the depth of reading comprehension, balanced introspection and meaningful reflection which leads to such positive and helpful comments as “sure,” “no one cares,” and “you are wrong.”
HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!!! :-)
I am thankful for witty sarcasm, because without it the truth would be unbearable
Tankinbeans is thankful for heated seats and fish eye mirrors.
Damn straight ;)
Oh jeez, I post here too much!!
I’m thankful for the shout out.
Also, I’m thankful for heated steering wheels and for the first 8am post every day so I can get a brief distraction from my distinctly non-car related job.
Great posts!
Don’t forget the brief return of Crabspirits.
And in keeping with the spirit of the occasion, when does the statute of limitations expire on BTSR’s banning? And what happened to Tresmonos?
Tres was a around maybe two weeks ago, I assume his work/life is getting in the way of the responsibility of hanging out with us.
@dal20402 – LOL
Reminder: It is THE time of year to purchase tires.
(and socket sets for the car)
(and hand tools)
[and AA and AAA batteries, but that’s not directly automotive-related]
STFU.
A box of 100 AA batteries arrived at my house tonight. All hail good planning.
Thankful that my Sister-in-law has finally come to her senses and told us to be there around 2 pm for a meal she does not intend to serve until 4 pm. Her typical routine the past 10 years has been to tell us to get there at 11:30 am or noon to watch her cook for 4 hours. (No she won’t let anybody help her.) Thinks she’s Martha Stewart.
Just makes me miss my Grandmother who put out her spread at about noon and didn’t put it away until everyone was going home. Grazing was her motto.
Thankful for my Buick badged Opel. ;-)
Thankful to still be alive, it’s never certain .
Also thankful for finally, after 23 months to be back in the house one of our teenage Foster boys burned us out of .
Thankful for the friends and family who are coming to our dinner, it should be great .
Especially thankful to live in America ~ everyone needs to live elsewhere for a while so they fully grasp the bigger picture .
-Nate
You win! -Nate, sometimes you give us glimpses of a full life filled with some crazy stuff
Be safe and take care
Thanx but I hardly win .
There are many here who work diligently to make things better and to share their knowledge .
I hunger for knowledge and love the free education I get here, not just the technical aspect, lots of real life tid bits too .
I’d not wish my life on a dog nor anyone I don’t like .
