On those TV shows where they build cars they give each one has a clever name. I'm calling this project "I Love You Every Bit as Much." (Yes, it's definitely sarcasm.)

I'm making up the lovely part. It's in between an auto parts store and a Ford dealer. But it's clean. The reason I picked it was I was starting to feel some fatigue. If you're not 100% focused on theもっと詳しく
