I think the Cavinator needs to pay a visit and remind them of “obligations” (pizzo) upon use of his globally recognised moniker.

Many of youse ugly people know that my amazing good looks hide a darker side of me, myself and I.

I am a jungle trained killer. That means when I plan stuff, failure is not an option.

This leads me to the FG stereo system.

Now it has Bluetooth, but only for phone calls, no playing both types of music, you know, country and western.

It does have an Apple thingy though.



Now these went out with the arc.

I connected up an adapter because my wife has one of dem fruit phones and it may connect music, or what she loosely terms music.

Yeah, nup, no work.



But wait, there's more.

I found an old iPad thingy back in my silly daze when I had an Apple music stuff.

I connected it up and bingo it worked!



Hey lookatdat. Some old tunes I had from way back. I tried to load some newer stuff but the disk was full.

Doncha hate that?

Now I didn't want to lose those old tunes so I hit upon another youbeaut idea

I had one of those Sony Walkman that I forgot I had. I found it when looking for some cables amongst my entangled cable drawer.

This is it.



So I plugged the cable into the headphone slot and bingo - music. Oh hang on, it's only coming outa driver's side speakers. A twidle with the cable had it fixed. Music!

And you wanna know what else?. I had one of those multiple socket thingies and on the end was a USB input - I could play tunes and charge the Walkman at the same time.

I told youse I don't give up.

But wait a minute. As I drove down the street, the Walkman was bouncing around creating static, so I plugged it into the USB port - and the result - LOUD STATIC!

OK so I phoned pestered friends on here and I got an old phone that I could use as a music player, bloody thing was useless. So I got another phone. It was useless too!

The problem was an intermittent signal - but how can it be the same on three music thingies.

So I read up on it.

Bloody hell I needed a TRSS cable like this



SEXSESS!



It's a cabling nightmare but it works, I have a gazillion MB little SD card in it so I have lots of great songs on it to impress the chicks with as I drive downtown Yappoon with my windows open and my sunnies on.

Oh and I have other tastes in music besides C&W

Have you heard of the REO bros?

Just got Shannon's renewal insurance on the 2008 FG XR6 ute

Agreed value $17,000

I asked them to have another look at the value and I quoted CarSales.

39 FG XR6 utes for sale ranging in price from $42,000 (9,000 km) to $11,450 (271,000kms) while most are seeking $21,000 with 92,000 km.

Mine has 67,000 km, is in mint condition driven only a couple of times a week and is owned by a good lookin' 72 year old chick magnet.

Any idea what agreed value they will come back with?

They should have been able to say yea or nay on the spot.
I just increased the renewal agreed value on my CV8 from $33K to $45K using Carsales as a reference, while acknowledging it is a dreamers paradise.
Cost me about 10mins on the phone and $8 per month.

I've been on the forums too much - I had a dream about this ute last night.
Didnt end well, Sorry Cav.
You were in front of me, the road narrowed and my front left clipped your right rear. It was wet and the blue ute spun 360 (eloquently of course) hitting the low concrete barrier on our right. Damage to the front and rear. We pulled over and you were not pleased.

While the basic Ford Six was code named Barra, the Turbo version clearly deserved its very own moniker – again enter Gordon Barfield.
We asked him if the engine had actually been called “Seagull” and how that came about.
“Actually it was just call “Gull”, because I named it that. Because we knew it was going to poo on everything”.

Default Re: Cav's Ute

Just had the auto selector thingy fixed by a local mobile mechanic and now I need a new muffler.

All from a 1500km round trip to Brisbane on Pluckachook's crap roads.

It sounds tuff though.

I may go and do a few laps of the main street accelerating up and down to impress the chicks, just like the old days.

Well don't have your 2 favourite types of music blaring
(Country & Western), try some Barry White, you catch more flies with honey than vinegar
