Jeep woes I take it? 20 minutes ago, JETURBO said: only catch is like all modern 4X4 diesels that they are extremely expensive to repair out of warranty periods Wasn't going to bother with a Jeep for build quality reasons but the 6.4 hemi makes me weak at the knees Agree re warranty, essentially why I want to get something with at least 12~18 months left on it that 'should' be enough to pick up most bugs Granted I'd be on my own after that, but it'll be a business vehicle so not so bad It's a lot of car for the coin. Yeh @ROB83R I've had an eye on the everest ever since they came out; the 3.2 diesel is no slug but no slingshot either but that can be 'assisted' my brother's ranger is chipped and it'd spank a stock version fairly soundly, not a big outlay Cheaper base interior (hard plastics etc) is the main con for me. @BAXRTUTE a merc made in the US ain't a merc to me... cheaper than expected though!

Jeep woes I take it? ahaha its a professional demolition company knocking over the house over the road and the guy is seen walking towards a tree that a massive machine is trying to knock down and then it shows the tree falling on his head and he emerges from it, a very lucky man that the main stump did not hit him as it was a big old tree.

Puffwagon Trust me bro...tbh ;) 8===} Gold Donating Members 16,064 Member For: 9y 11m 25d Gender: Male Location: South Australia Posted 09/01/17 12:51 PM Share Posted 09/01/17 12:51 PM I'm getting more dental work tomorrow. This time it's just some fillings thank fark. Since last time, I've had a piece of bone come out of my tooth hole. I've just had another small piece of bone that was lodged in there come out through my gum only 2 days ago that had just finished traveling through the gum for the last month. So much pain... I spose 4 wisdom teeth and 3 fillings in nearly 37 years ain't too bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't painful on the way through, or maybe I confused it with general soreness from the extraction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I scratched it out a couple of nights ago and now I'm pain free, finally. My jaw ligaments are still a bit tight and I can't open my mouth properly yet without soreness. I also have a massive lump on one side which I think would be impacted bone due to the sideways tooth. The tooth was severely impacted apparently. I swear the guy must have been putting 20 to 30 kg of downwards force on my unsupported jaw for many a tick'o'the clock. Now I know why people don't want to go to the dentist.
