lol, here are the issues.
Think of me as a ***** or cheap jew or whatever, but i gotta think about myself when a favor this big is asked and put into play.
So we all know the favor being asked: drive the car to texas, dick will pay for half the fuel and half the plane ticket home. Fuel should equal out to $400 saying his car gets at least 20mpg per the 1700 mile trip. The flight, if its still available is $200 bucks. (yes its expensive because of the short notice booking). Sooooo, dick said he would pay for half, equaling it out to 300 bucks. Thats 300 i would have to pay just to drive his car and spend an entire weekend driving <which i dont mind what-so-ever<
I offered to pay for the entire flight home, cuz i LOVE flying if he paid for all the gas. Could be 400 could be less, you never know. If i were to drive, i would do the speed limit the whole way and run on only 1 injector to save gas. Dick doesnt want to pay the extra 100 bucks for gas, lol
I dont think i should have to pay anything extra other than what i already offered, ya know? I have to take into consideration my time and labor![Smilie](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/smile.gif)
Yes, i know dick needs our help and he doesnt make alot of money. i was thinking he could pay me back over time. he said no.
I dont think i should have to pay anymore than what i thought was damn reasonable to drive it out there and pay for my own flight home. Just driving it there is a huge *** favor i would say.
...Oh well...

I zoom therefore I am.
we do think of you as a ***** and a cheap jew.
you didn't have to offer to help in the first place. but you did
Dick has about as much money at the moment as your average homeless person. Just bow out and someone else will do it.

First of all, this favor was not asked of you, so I dont know where the **** you got that idea, you said you would help.
Second of all, you cheap *** son of a bitch, you have money, you can afford it, but you cant loosen your coal bearing ******* one bit for anyone other than your self, the fact that you only care about your self and no one else makes you a horrible candidate as a friend
Third, you do not understand the word reasonable, so shut the **** up
Fourth, you dont have an rx8 anymore, you never liked the one you had, I don't see why your even around. How about? LEAVE

Yea... Wow, you offered and now you're backing out... Dude, he's a friend and it shouldn't really matter. I'm with Zach on this one, LEAVE. Don't try to show off your pretty little things, ugly *** car, or offer a hand and bitch out like that.

First off, im not bitching out. I dont see anyone else offering up to drive it out there! I said i would drive out there if FUEL ONLY was covered. Im/was going to pay for my flight home. Yeah its a favor, a HUGE favor for a friend in need. Dont you dare come bitching at me for offering what I, repeat, I offered. At least i offered but dick doesnt want to pay me back for the gas bill over time when he does make better money. There for, im not going to do it. Yes, i have money, but my money is my business, so F off if you cant handle that. No, i dont have an RX8 anymore so i think i will cancel my account.
This has gotten out of hand, good luck to who ever drives the car out there if its not me.
Forgive me if i come off as a ***** but i think driving the car out there is a favor in itself, i dont see why i should have to pay a dime. But i did offer to pay for my own plane fare which would be at the least 200 bucks due to the short notice booking.
So in summary, yes, a huge favor is being asked, dick doesnt make a lot of money, but i think paying over time is reasonable of me to ask. I loan money to my friends alot, i guess you could say im a bookie. But whatever!
Good luck Dick, i hope the car gets out there safe and sound and best of luck to all the cool people like Rob and my late beloved friend Adam < yes i went there
PEACE! IM OUT!

I guess there's no need to respond to that since he finally "dipped" out. But, SEE YA!!! It's always funny where there is a group of people and everyone else gets along except for that one, and they think it's the group with the problem...
Matt, did you get the car back yet? And let me know when you guys plan on heading there.

Just got off the phone with gabe over at the body shope. He's saying it should be down by mon-tuesday of next week. ![Frown](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/frown.gif)
Sounds like some parts got delayed so not really much he could do.

Just saw this and figured I'd repost it here since you guys dont actually read other threads: https://www.rx8club.com/rx-8-parts-sale-wanted-44/f-s-cobb-access-port-box-148194/
guy is selling his 2 month old AP for 610 shipped... 100 bucks cheaper then new.

Sounds like it was more of an issue getting Mazda to ship out parts then anything else.
I'll be ordering on of those MM AP's for an Xmas gift for myself.

I'm going to go talk to TMO and see what, if anything, can be done about my car. I'll either be able to talk to them tomorrow or Friday, so I'll see what I can come up with.

Matt, I found out that I can give you power of attourney to ship my car for me. I need to fax you 7 copies of my orders. I'll get the necessary paperwork drawn up as well as the location of the VPC.

awesome news.. so that would take the time crunch out of the car, correct?
I dont have a fax, but if you call the guys over at the body shop i bet they could hold them for me.

what the... that was a lot of reading... sorry I've been out of the circulation for a while, in and out of state plus overseas trips got me pretty busy.
Dick, don't hesitate to give me a call if you need any help.
David, I got the PM but I won't be in Jersey and won't be back 'til the 26th of this month.
I'll be in town this weekend so hopefully I'll see everyone at the meet.
btw, is it still at Union Landing?

I don't want to put much into this because your gone, but I know your bitch *** reads this crap anyways...
The only way you even still have friends is because you loan people money, other than that you have nothing else to offer.
With that said, matt and I were planning on taking the car to him, we were running into insurance issues and what not and we werent sure when we were going to beable to take the car.
Dick didn't want you to take him his car because he would have rather seen me or matt or both of us than you. Its the truth, live with it, oh, and your a shitty driver to boot.
Whether its a HUGE favor or a little favor, your should be there for your close friends, you asked dick to pay you back because you didnt want to be out any money, I'll be honest, I asked dick how much money he could give me because I really cant afford the gas and stuff it would take to get there and I thought I was going to have to do it alone, but if matt comes and could share the costs it would be a non-issue and I wouldnt care if I ever saw that money again, simply knowing I was able to help my friend in need would be reward enough.
Good riddence you sack of crap
Oh, and one more thing, I dont think publicly announcing that adam is/was your friend is of any benefit to you. He was all of our friends until he turned in to a bitch, hmm...sounds familiar

1. Yes, i offered but nothing was official and put into place.
2. You guys ******* pwned me cuz you had a plan all along. It was my understanding that dick needed his car ASAP, yeah, looks like he doesnt know.
3. Yes Matt, my jeep is up for sale, lol. Thanks for stalking me on the other forum
4. Zach, you think your this big tough **** who can talk down to me, well dude,
simmer down, stop being pissed at everyone and man up. You dont run anyones life but your own so stop thinking its ok to put people down. **** you sir.
5. I dont care about money, well wait, yes i do
![Lol2](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/lol2.gif)
6. I have plenty of friends dude, dont think im some rich little loser kid. You dont know me outside of the rx8 clan. Hell, you dont know me at all!
![Lol](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/lol.gif)
7. I didnt want to drive dicks car down there cuz half the **** on there ill probably get pulled over for from the southern hwy patrol and cuz i have better things to do. but the favor was asked, i gave my terms cuz this is one HUGE ******* FAVOR to be asked. But no, it fell through, not my fault. I will do what I want to do. And if you guys want to give me **** or think im selfish, then so be it. Im not going to go above and beyond the call of duty for someone who i dont really know all that well.
8. I was supposed to do this alone? If i had someone to go with me i wouldnt have bitched. gas would have been alot cheaper and i still would have payed for my flight home, thus saving dick lots of money.
9. **** it, lol. this whole thing has gotten out of control and i dont care anymore. Its lame if you ask me. You guys targeted me, probably cuz i dont drive an 8 anymore, lol. Lame, really lame guys. Nice one
![Us4allswing](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/us4allswing.gif)
10. I thought adam was cool as ****. I dont see why you guys have to go after and target everyone who might not share the same interests as you guys. "oh yeah, we drive rx8's, we are sooo cool, we are better than you"
![Lol](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/lol.gif)
![Lol](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/lol.gif)
