Nope. Just day dreaming randomly...

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.

Oh, OK.



Big wheels just make the driver look tiny, anyway.

I tried googling today, and only found that there is a company called Duraflap
in Grants Pass, OR. that makes designs in the stainless steel weights at the bottom
of the flap. They do make custom designs for an extra charge, but you wouldn't
get the nice colors!
They can be purchased at Home - Keep Oregon Green Association, Inc. in four sizes. I the smallest set on my Jeep from them; colors are bright and they're holding up well.

Thanks for that. It was all about the Tillamook Burn, but I think it's still a good message for our time.
