15 days and a wake up...

Frank- Yes you did. I was planning on going on your thread and saying that very thing when I got home tonight. You were very right. I LOVE driving this thing. I don't even have the belly pan on yet. The only downer is going to be when I switch over to the H-rated tires. My Insight tires are getting close to being worn out on the out sides of the tread. If I were using them locally I might feel comfortable using them until winter, but 5000 miles plus would not be good.

Aerohead- BWaaa-haa-ha!

Tonight was some inside work, started installing the relay to control the fuel pump with the injector kill switch, permanently mounting the plywood over the old seat cavity with a hinge, to be used as a tool storage compartment. Forgot the camera at home and will get some pics tomorrow. First cleaning and vacuum before trip.
