  • I needed to wake up and crawl out of this funk I've been in for the past few months/years... and to do that, I decided to return to my old ways and pick up a new truck project!!! I also disclose the harsh realities of building a completely custom house.

    The fact that you were able to stay persistent during the whole process given covid/supply chain issues is awesome. Enjoy the fruits of your labor & buy a nice chair to enjoy that view when you want to reminisce on the hardships of building the house.

    You don't need the club. Under your steering column there's a cable you can pull out and loop around the wheel and padlock it. There's a high idle switch next to it under the wheel. The cable is to the right tucked in. It's about 2 feet long

    Got my first house at 26 and my story was EXACTLY the same as yours, even after being in the house the process brought me to tears many times. I also had to sleep in my closets for the first week too. So many nights of sheer frustration. To this day even though it has become a rental property I wonder if it was worth it.

    • @CornerBalanced
      @CornerBalanced  9 месяцев назад +2

      Yeah the trauma of this and how frustrating it was is hard to shake off. A bit sad to hear that you're still not able to smell the flowers on it because I worry if that will be the same fate for me too

    I have an 1165a1 myself. You actually still have some armor plates in the truck. Driver inner footwell behind the insulation and also probably the passenger side as well. Probably still has the armor behind the passenger AC as well.

    I think the reason the house build is so stressful for you is because you expect nothing less than perfection. Most people would have just said "thats okay" and moved on, but you made sure it was done 100% right the first time, just like most of your automotive builds.

    • @CornerBalanced
      @CornerBalanced  10 месяцев назад

      True, some things were just plain not done or done wrong... but most things were me trying to get 100%. I painted the walls in the house 5 different times already
