Cool garage, Dave. Nice floor! I gotta get my poop in a group and call those garage people. I've already paid for 1/2......

Gotta make the garage nice to park the new car (which I got Wednesday! )

I got it from CostCo online... I got 400 sq.ft for under $1300 delivered to my door (The tile alone was about $1100). It's pretty much just like Racedeck from what I found out... It has a same inter-locking system, 10 yr. warranty, solvent resistent... etc etc. Installed in about 2 hours...

Thanks Brian

You know what? I've had that thing for almost 2 years now... I can't bring myself to cut it, so Rob (CULookin) sent me some plans to make a frame and hang the hole thing. I also have an old EMT I'm gonna cut and place against the wall to make it look like a more 3D look... I'll work on in the next month or so.
