    1st time buying stocks on my OWN online? How?

    Stay away from Robinhood. They have a few legal issues and they want your bank username and password to set up an account with them! 😒

    Stock buying software?

    So I'm ahead of myself... again! 🤪 :ROFLMAO:

    Stock buying software?

    Anybody? I've been doing a ton of research but am not really getting anything helpful. :cautious:

    Stock buying software?

    I'm interested in getting some software and a website for buying and selling stocks. I'd like to be able to buy fractional shares, gift stocks to others, set up "auto-buy" at a fixed dollar amount which would then divided by the stocks in my portfolio. And other good stuff. 🤪 Does such...

    My new trucklet!

    Nope, no hybrid available (yet). Mine is the SEL Premium, which has a turbocharged 4 cylinder with 281HP and 311 Lbs/Ft of torque. And it's All Wheel Drive.

    My new trucklet!

    BTW - I got over 30mpg last week on a 100+ mile round trip, most of it interstate but about 40 minutes of city and town driving. I'm happy with that. (y) 😁

    My new trucklet!

    Yeah, I'm figuring that Hyundai will have a full blown all-electric Santa Cruz within 3 or 4 years, so I'll probably trade this one in at that time. :cool:

    Where do I belong? Alum Goods 1687, SS16 Clone?

    I kept mine in the fridge and it lasted a long time there.

    1976 Starcraft Chieftain 18' OB - restomod

    Yah, I read a ton about them when I was searching to power the Chief. The light weight was a big factor. I know about re-jetting the top carb one size richer to prevent leaning out.

    I bought the pair of 70s specifically for the Chieftain to provide reliability and adequate power to get back to shore quickly if the need arises. Cool factor is definitely a bonus! 😁😎

    1976 Starcraft Chieftain 18' OB - restomod

    Yeah, me too! And it was two tarps... 😫 I really regret having neglected this old beauty for so long, but will do what I can to get it back on the water. I have no idea how long it's been ashore, but there were several owners prior to me who had it as a project and they never did anything...

    Okay. Is there a way to link just a single post or maybe a page?

    My new trucklet!

    We've finally started my Chieftain project and after blasting 6 years of mold and grime off the boat this afternoon, we took it down to my favorite spot for a few pictures. The little truck towed the big Chief with total aplomb. :cool:

    1976 Starcraft Chieftain 18' OB - restomod

    Today we got the pressure washing done, then headed to the water for some sunset pictures. Pulled the Chief out of the backyard. Six years of mold and grime about to be blasted off! ;) The boy has grown quite a bit over the last year and is very useful. Getting it done. Yes, I was...

    Got a little more cleanup done today. Next step will be pressure washing at the car wash.

    1976 Starcraft Chieftain 18' OB - restomod

    Port engine on stand. Mulched deck was next. Starcraft OEM foam still in place. Foam removed. I was very happy to see that this Chief has the factory reinforced splash rail and rib end braces installed. Whew! Next steps will be additional cleanup followed by pressure washing at a...

    1976 Starcraft Chieftain 18' OB - restomod

    There's going to be a ton of work needed. The starboard engine doesn't have tilt and trim (TnT) but I have a TnT unit under the blue tarp in the cabin area. That'll have to get mounted and I've never done that before. As always, I'll have to learn as I go. We got the big stuff out of the...

    And today we started the cleanup. Somewhere underneath all that grossness is a... Chieftain! :cool:
