I hope to find a decent price for a V2 so Matty's V1 kit could have a compagnon.

Just hoping to get some sort of return. Sold the house when we moved and am now renting. The twins should be arriving just as the Tax Check comes in anyway. I guess whatever we get will go towards diapers.

Well I shouldn't have really said nothing.

I am buying a trailer to haul my Max, wish it was a covered trailer. I'm moving later in the year, so most of my tax return is going for a new house. But there is a couple of things I needed to get for my truck for the trip.

Car gets nothing.

It depends on how soon you file your tax forms.

poor college students, small tax returns

Want new wheels since mine are the lamest on the street, but since my return won't even come close to that bill, I'm planning on throwin some tints on.

Put the money in the bank to let it grow and save it for future maintenance.

If i had to spend it, probably get a y-pipe and b-pipe from Cattman.

I could buy a 4th gen with my tax return if my wife didn't get half of it

I'm not buying anything....except selling my townhouse and buying a SFH with 2-car garage. Then I'll use that tax return money to stock the garage with the few tools and machines I don't already own

no congrats yet. I have to sell my house first. I agree with your outlook though. I told my wife: "I don't care about the house, as long as it has a 2-car garage and a flat driveway."

Shightlight, KYB AGX Rear-Shocks, Nitrous Purge, Nitrous Pressure Gauge and a full bottle of juice.

Should be fun!

possibly a swap to a de-k, with the 3.5 cams, as mine is burning the oil faster then the gas.

That's my policy! Whenever I buy a house I either want a multi-car garage or I'll build one.
