Default Hard at work thread.

Since I'm so busy at work, I've been thinking about the dream garage game. I'm sure everyone's played it before. Give yourself a budget, go shopping for cars etc. But since my work load is SO heavy, I've thinking up extra rules so the game gets more interesting, sorta.

Here goes.

Start off with $500,000 and 2 garage spaces (1 space per car). Use MSRP or KBB Retail suggested for New/older cars.

Additional garage spaces cost $20,000 (Because in dream world, land costs more than cars, and you tend to choose your cars more carefully.)

Try using formats like

__________________________________________________ ________
Cash left: Garage Spaces: Date started:

Car 1:
Yr/Manufacturer/Model
Color/Int color
Price:
Mods (price)
Total price:

Car 2: (etc etc)
__________________________________________________ ________

If for some reason you decide you don't want a car anymore or see a car someone else has and want, sell the car using KBB trade-in value or sell/negotiate to another player/poster.

There was an income system I was thinking about, sorta like $5,000 per day increase. Use date started to measure how much income you've earned. But we can implement this later.

Mod rules: Use MSRP for mod prices. Mods can be sold for 20% less MSRP. Repaints cost $1000. Tack $100 for paint on aesthetic pieces (if applicable).

This is what I can remember at this point. And lets ridicule/praise people on their car choices!
