Thumbs up Thank you blnewt!

So I know this type of thing often goes overlooked or under appreciated in most cases and especially on an online car forum, however I would like to take a moment and thank blnewt (Brad) for all of his responses, help, tips, insight, and wisdom when it comes to anything G related. Especially wheels and tires!

When I first joined this forum 4 years ago, I really didnt know much about the G platform other than a few numbers and things off top my head. Brad answered every single message, question, or concern I had in a friendly fashion and still does to this day.

Almost every thread has a response, input, or encouragement from Brad which speaks volumes in my opinion.

I've been on multiple car forums in the past and never really seen a member quite like him.

I know there is the "thanks" option in threads/posts but this is much more than that. Sometimes recognition is needed is other forms so I just wanted to say thank you Brad, I'm sure I can speak for a lot of members regarding this.

I'm much more of a lurker on this forum despite loving my car, but I'll also admit, blnewt is the man.

Agreed. Very helpful for folks just getting into these cars. Instead of just giving the normal pitch about how this question has been answered hundreds of times, he provides useful info and a link to a pertinent thread.

Yep. An unusually nice guy suffering from way-y-y-y more patience than I'll ever have.

I think he's going to retire on accumulated Karma.

Would've never have had the gall to vinyl wrap anything without his videos. There's a lot of all-stars on this forum but Brad is a staple. Patience of a saint too. Thank you for the plethora (large amount of) of information provided!

Thanks Daddy for initiating this thanks thread, means a lot and the following appreciative replies make this site what it is, very good group of auto-heads

I'm so old-school that I still have a dumb phone, no facebook, snapchat, et al, so having a reliable place to share car talk is something that will continue to keep me out of the bars. And although my wifes' patience can wear thin from the time spent around here she's happy that it's something I enjoy

You guys (and a few gals) are what makes this place great, so many helpful, knowledgeable people that I've learned much from. One of these days I'll post up a sequential thread of what I've done, so you can see firsthand that I've had quite a few fumbles along the way

Thanks again!

I don't think you're using the word "plethora" accurately.

Then again...

Thanks blnewt! Seems like more often than not, people just can't stop the temptation to troll or provide sarcastic remarks, all the damn time.. You see it here all the time.

You my friend are a nice dude. You deserve all the recognition. No sarcasm. No bull****. Cheers mate!
