    At least it's not a Leaf, which is just a fishlike body on a Versa frame with an electric motor.



    But thanks for your service.

    aired up at home.

    aired up at school.

    aired out at work.

    Oh and cancelled Sirius because they charged me $50. They said they didn't have the 6 months for $25 that some are getting so I'll just wait a few days for their call.

    I have two 20% off coupons for service.

    Too bad I do everything myself, minus alignments. String and a protractor, no thanks.

    Wash and deep interior clean yesterday. Needed it badly after about 5k in road trips this winter.

    Pulled BLQs out of storage, cleaned, touched up paint, getting ready to mount.

    Today - clay bar, wax, touch up paint, install Hawk HPS pads, mount BLQs. Got to get her looking pretty again...
