Here's one of my personal favorites, "Do not bring a calculator anywhere near your stack of restoration receipts."

I think 10 commandments are not enough!! I think when JQ Public ask dumb questions owners/drivers should not act as if their hair is on fire!!!Kids will be kids and unless we were chained to a large tree [WE] were also dumb kids once!!!! When it is not fun anymore sell or pass it along! :oops: Guilty of some of this myself :oops: Bud.

Thou shalt keep thine belt buckle separate and at a distance from the automobile.

I used to do cars where I worried about kids, dogs, getting scratches, etc. Now
I have a TT, and encourage all of the above. Today I am going to pick up a load
of firewood. Beat it like a rented mule ! :lol:
More people are doing it today than ever before !
