1965 Jeep Wagoneer

Arriving in 1962 to replace the Willys Jeep Station Wagon, the Jeep Wagoneer marked a significant development in American automotive design. This vehicle combined off-road capability with passenger comfort, helping create what would become known as the Sport Utility Vehicle category. Available with two or four-wheel drive, the Wagoneer featured independent front suspension and offered an automatic transmission—unprecedented in comparable vehicles. The 230-cubic-inch "Tornado" overhead-cam straight-six engine provided reliable power.

Its practical design remained fundamentally unchanged for nearly three decades, with production ending in 1991. After a three-decade absence, Jeep revived the iconic nameplate in 2022 with the fourth-generation Wagoneer, now positioned as a full-size premium SUV based on the Ram 1500 chassis. The modern interpretation comes in standard and extended "L" versions, featuring advanced technology and powerful twin-turbocharged engines while maintaining the original's blend of luxury and capability.

My mom wanted to go buy some food & other supplies for a birthday party or some kind of other party before it was too late. We had some kind of light thing (machine) or something that was going to be used at the party. Continue reading My Mom & I Getting Birthday Party Supplies

sorry to everyone who’s watching svu as a police procedural, that seems bad and boring. i on the other hand am watching it as the most fucked psychological horror series ever produced about a woman trapped in a tv show that’s trying to kill her

Another reason oil companies use to raise prices on gasoline and home heating fuels is when there are no other issues. ‘The weather is too hot!’

Join venture/ Strategic Partnership

Adopting strategic partnerships is one of the best ways to increase your customer stream in auto repair business. A joint venture or becoming a franchise to an automobile company can be a good idea. The strategic partnership offers multiple options for you. You can become a designated repair shop of any car insurance company. Generally, insurance companies deal in a wide variety of insurances. They don’t maintain an in-house department for claims. They have designated workshops where you send their customers whenever they experience a vehicle accident. This way, as a repair shop, you will have a stable customer flow in your workshop without making separate marketing efforts to increase your business. However, you must comply with insurance company policies in that regard.

Local Marketing

Local marketing includes the promotional activities you carry out surrounding your workshop area. This can be very effective because accessibility is an important consideration for customers when it comes to choosing an auto repair shop. Creating offers for people who can actually avail of them is a better choice since they can be easily encouraged to take purchase decisions.

Local promotional marketing campaigns include signboards and pamphlets. Brochures that will let people learn about your value offers. You can personally encourage incoming customers to come again by offering second-purchase discounts. This includes onsite sales on the outlet, value bundle offers, and more carefully configurated sales packages.

Referral Program

One of the best ways to attract a new customer in the general car business is to initiate a referral program and add valuable customer benefits. For instance, when referring a customer, you get a flat 20% off your next purchase when he gets a service. The business also offers a free surprise gift or complimentary services in a referral program. You can add whatever is possible for you. Here is a short list of ideas:

Discounts or coupons.

Giveaways or free subscriptions.

Branded Items such as a keychain, bottle, pen, diary or other things

Store credits or points.

Flat discounts

Paid ads Campaigns

Social media Ads and Google pay-per-click is another highly effective idea to attract increasing numbers of customers to your car service business. Social media paid ad campaign helps you increase your sales leads by increasing your brand reach to millions of people. Platform-sponsored content appears on users’ timelines regardless of whether they follow the page or not. When paid ads increases brand exposure, it helps them in multiple purposes:

Increase brand awareness

Snowflake Day Tree + Activities

I actually started to make this two years ago and forgot about it but then I got the idea to do it again and remembered that I had already written most of the code. It was sort of like finding money in your pocket you'd forgotten about. 😂

Much like in real life, I prefer to spend my holidays in-game with family instead of randoms and I just want to open presents without having to throw a Gift Giving party. So I made a Christmas Snowflake Day tree to do that where you can decorate and add gifts to open on Snowflake Day.

I also added some holiday activities for kids and toddlers if you have the More Activities Activity Table. It's an add-on so you need that mod (and whatever requirements go with it) if you don't already.

Enjoy and Merry Christmas!

More info after the cut and Updates here

Decorate the Tree (this is meant as a joinable group activity so you can invite others to join; up to 4 Sims (child+) can decorate) 

Add Tree Topper (if you have any)

Hang Ornaments (if you have any)

Turn On/Off Lights (if decorated)

Admire Ornaments (sims may get a nice holiday moodlet - Holiday Memories buff)

Add Gift for…

Look at Presents (get information on how many gifts are under the tree and to whom)

Steal Presents (only for Klepto, rebellious, Evil, Mean-spirited; you will get in trouble if someone sees)

Sneak a Peek at Presents - to check out any of your gifts

Invite Everyone to Open Presents - for Snowflake Day, brings everyone on the lot to open gifts under the tree; if someone doesn’t have gifts, they will watch others open presents and if they are in the household they will get a sad buff. Gifts improve relationship score if Sims like it; does nothing if they don’t but if they get too many gifts they don’t like, they can complain about it.

Open Gifts - self explanatory. If you don’t want to gather everyone together, you can open gifts at any time on Snowflake Day. Depending on how many gifts you like/don't like, you will get a special moonlet (Feeling Grateful/Bummer Holiday)

Take Down Decorations

Put Away Tree

Sims can also:

Ask for holiday presents…Toy | Book | Vehicle | Computer | Electronics | Jewelry | Decor | Hobby Object | Sports Object

This is a one-time interaction that Sims can use on any family or household member. If a sim gets what they asked for, they will get a special buff (Just What I Wanted)

Thank for Presents (if they had a particularly good Snowflake Day)

Complain about Presents (if they had a bad one)

With the MAAT add-on, children and toddlers can also:

Make handmade ornaments and hang them on the tree. The ornaments can be stored in the decorations box.

Make handmade Snowflake Day cards for friends and family (kids only). You can give them directly to Sims or put them under the tree as a gift.

Notes and Recommendations:

To be able to utilize all the tree features, make sure there is enough space around the entire tree for Sims to gather and interact with the tree

Your Sims need to have a giftable object in their personal or household inventory to add a present to the tree

When a Sim has asked for a gift, the game checks whether any of the gifts they receive are in the same buy subcategory or object type as what they asked for so if, as example, a kid asks for a toy and you get them a cc toy that is categorized as a plant or deco object in the game, it’s not going to count. 

To gift jewelry, you need the TS3 Store Jewelry Machine or any custom wearable jewelry objects that is the same object type as the Store Jewelry box object

If you don't have my activities table mod and don't want it, then don't download the two MAAT files.

Requires Generations, Showtime (actually I don't think you need Showtime. I think I wanted to use something from it but then didn't but I'm sure one of you will confirm for me 😭) and Seasons

Details and Instructions:

The tree and box can be purchased in the Entertainment/Hobbies Section (300 and 200, respectively), the tree topper in the Misc Deco (90) or they can all be found in the custom Snowflake Day collection file.

To decorate the tree, your Sim needs both the tree object and the decorations box. Custom ornaments and tree toppers go into the decorations box.

The tree comes with a default decoration but you can create and add your own tree decorations. The file has an XML (HolidayTreeDecorations) where you can add the Resource Key, Group ID for the OBJD of the decoration, whatever name you want to call it, whether you want it to light up or not, and the image (if you don’t want a custom image, just use the default one in my first entry).

Saying he was in the market for a more powerful and rugged vehicle, prospective car buyer Gabe Orcutt reportedly took an SUV out Wednesday for a test hit and run. “I took it for a spin through some pedestrians, and I like how smoothly this thing flees the scene of an accident,” Orcutt said of the GMC Acadia, adding that he was impressed by how well the mid-size sport utility vehicle handled curbs and bollards. “I popped right up on the sidewalk, over a guy, and into the park, no problem.
