Already some dam-age. oops.

Backing out of our driveway is an ordeal. Short story: Backed over some rocks that stick up (gone now) and popped some screws, bent the aluminium lower bar

Fixed it in 20 ninutes

Picked up aluminium for the top and bottom trim today in the Golden...Rod? I'm getting "the stares" everywhere. I was thinking, why would a big black nothing be so obvious? No grille? It does look a bit nascar, I guess. I will have to order some Ecomodder stickers.

No time to do any testing but it seems to coast forever. The testing will have to wait for my MPGuino which should be coming any day now.
