A little more detail cleaning. I was going to set the toe this morning but when I checked it was right at 0, 53.25 inches front and back on the front tires. I visually looked like it was toed in but I think the rear track is narrower than the front which was confirmed with the measurement.

Looks like 38 MPG will be close to my avergae, a little lower in winter. Half of the miles are road trips of no more than 100 miles round trip. A thousand miles since purchase.

So far I'm at $750 total including DMV fees. Insurance is dirt cheap.

I like to get everything current. After that I can just focuson normal maintenance, which on this car is basically oil changes. Oil consumption is minimal, I need more time but the level has not moved and the oil is still clean.

The wife fell asleep in the car coming back from Va Beach Wednesday. I guess she can live with the Sentra and I added towing to my insurance policy for two bucks every six months.

A hot air intake will be easy with the exhaust manifold front.
