I used WAZE app for iPhone on my commute home. If you don't know what that is, do yourself a favor and try it. Best driving app ever.

I would bet that 90% of you will be super happy if you give it a try.

I actually cluttered up my dash with a phone mount JUST for this app. (Typically I don't like junk in my field of view...)

Something like 10,000 reviews in the App Store and it gets an average of 5 stars. That is amazingly high.

Just sayin'. ;)

I find its cheaper and way faster to just get a small oil change setup and do the changes myself. The wife thinks I'm crazy of course (until I do hers for her as well), but I put in better oil and use filter magnets and stuff. The big thing is that by the time I could get down to jiffy lube or the dealer, I can have done my own about 3 times. (I buy oil in bulk when it goes on sale to save additional money and time).

Just an idea ;)

That royal purple stuff and K/N filters seem to review well around here.

That sounds like a good idea, i was thinking id start changing it myself also. I feel like i can't trust anyone with the Z

I pulled the Z out of the garage to enjoy some responsible VDC off driving in the cooler weather. :tup:

Oh, and I filled up the tank. Good thing I had a quarter of a tank left before I filled up :eek:

Parked the car in the garage. Then spent the evening at an awards ceremony for my daughter by clandestinely shopping on my smartphone for a TT solution for the car.

Already? I got about 13,000 out of my rears. Am I not pushing hard enough?

No you are not. Come out to Thunderhill October 22nd with me.

My rears are far better than my fronts. It is the front edge that has disappeared. I am just glad I'm running two degrees of camber, or I'd be in worse shape.
