Yeah I wash them and also have MF cleaner. In the past I have found stuff still stuck in them after a couple of wash cycles. Now I just dont chance it.

It sucks, because it's like the last night I will get to see the lady friend for a month or more.



Right now it's like every 2-3 weeks we get to see one another for a weekend.

This is the off topic thread, just FYI There's an On Topic thread in the General Discussions forum I think.

You're more than welcome to

Sweet. I've been shopping around for LSD and gears myself

Considering Wavetrac or OS Giken. Trying to decide if it is worth the extra 4 bills, or if those extra funds better put towards the gears.

Look forward to hearing about your rear end!

I need more coffee....

Found a used 2007 red Mazda 3 hatch with 126k miles. new suspension with struts and springs which makes me a little hesitant. Wanted 5k for it.

Those things are rust buckets. Are you looking for a second car?

Yea. I leased a 2013 Honda Civic Si and it ends Sept 4th thankfully. Worst car I have ever owned. I'll never buy another Honda again in my life. I want something absolutely dirt cheap (under 6k) and can survive NY winters (1ft+).

Looking at Volvo S40's, a few older Subbies, and some old Dodge trucks. The Mazda just caught my eye. A bulletproof engine and working heater is all that's required haha. 150k miles on a known solid engine don't scare me.

I dont follow Mazda pricing at all but did pick up a winter beater/haul the kids and stuff around. Scored an 06 Escape Ltd AWD with 100k on it, every option for $3500 cdn dollars. Darn near mint too, needed nothing but tires (came with winters only). So that's like 200 bucks us lol.

Ok the exchange is something like 30% but it may as well be the other number it's so ridiculous.

It's nothing too fancy but nice enough to drive and the 3.0 is dead reliable. Works for me.
