Currently planning for the second weekend in August, (12-13) but the date is subject to revision

This will be a two day meet with an overnight camping stop. The current plan is to start somewhere in Granite Falls and drive the mountain loop over to Darrington. in Darrington we can pick up perishable supplies, ice, beer, w/e for the overnight stay.

Camping will be in the Sauk river valley, which is considered a primitive camping area. this means we will need to carry in either enough water or adequate water filtration for the second half of the day/following morning. the area could be quite hot and sunny, so bring pop up shades, umbrellas, sunscreen, etc, to help you keep cool. this is also an area of fairly high insect activity, so bring your favorite bug spray.

there is a shooting pit in the camp area, so feel free to bring something to plink with. please be smart with your firearm usage/storage

Day 2 will consist of following highway 530 up to highway 20, and then looping along the back side of the cascades back toward Monroe.

As of the last meet, it was decided that everyone needs to have a radio for communication. it helps a lot with general coordination as well as locating people in areas with no cell phone service. We recommend snagging a Baofeng UV-5R from amazon. they're dirt cheap, and surprisingly solid.

Would you buy a car that someone died or or was used to transport a body?


I have family in LE and I always get a quick peak at all the cars they are auctioning every couple years. This year they have this fucking MINT 1999 F250 7.3L with only 60k miles on it.

I want that truck so god damn bad, I asked my brother why it was seized and he said it was used to transport a body during a murder. Obviously the body was in the bed of the truck because there isn't any blood inside. However half of the trucking truck is sticky from being sprayed with Luminol so I MAY have to replace the carpet and seats or just have it detailed like 10 times in a row at different places.


Think I should buy it?

Due to having family in LE I can probably get it out of auction if I pay 7k and make a small 300 dollar donation to the county as well

I'm sick of paying out of my ass for rent to live in a tiny box with 5 shitty housemates.

I am going to buy a van to sleep in, park it on campus. Get a membership at the campus gym for shower facilities. The only thing I haven't figured out is eating.

Has any of you fagg/o/t done something similar? Where I live it doesn't get too cold (-5 Celsius, 23 Fahrenheit for like a week) so I can survive the winter nights with a good sleeping bag.

I can even ask for an office at the university and a parking spot since I'm going to be a grad student next year. This will give me a pass that will allow me to stay late at the university buildings. So really, I just need to get out at 12:00, go to sleep in the car, shower at 8:00 and start the day,

Only thing I haven't figured out is food. Eating out isn't a big thing here. Most people cook their own food and I won't be able to do much. I can have a microwave in my office but that's about it.

Pic related is the van I think I will get. Just an inconspicuous workman's van.

Planning to buy an E46 320 diesel from Germany for somewhere around 4500 euro. Been searching for one on mobile.de and I want to know what are some common problems, what to look for, what is the maximum number of km to look at when buying the car.

It will be my first car and I think it is suitable. How does it handle in winter, how good is the auto transmission etc. I need everything on it, been looking on forums for info but I want to hear /o/ opinion as well.

I don't know much about Fiat but all I've seen on it from this board is universal hatred. Why is that?
