    Yes thats the place. I had a card with all their services on there. It's not bad, plus the Mobil gas station there is pretty low, one of the lowest in my area (gas prices).

    There's a bunch of $3 car washes around here, the one I go to is $1. $7 pretty much gets the whole deal including interior stuff...

    Anyway, mud is good for keeping salt off your paint, right? I just spent two trips to the coin-drop power washer to get the mud off the undercarriage and there's still stuff left in there...

    Woke up to about 2" of the fluffy stuff this morning. Roads already had salt on them, so my nice clean car is all salty.

    I caught black ice last night and ended up doing a premature FWD (Honda) drift-countersteer-drift-countersteer onto the freeway.
    Pretty dangerous. Fortunately I did the right thing and let off the gas and let the car lose speed by itself, and I simply steered it slowly until the tires were able to grab again.

    No panicky stabbing of the brake pedal and then watching the wall come sliding up...

    I just drove somewhere on property at work on an icy dirt road. The first corner I came into it pushed for a second. Luckily the drive is uphill at first so I was giving her hell on the throttle to see how much I could break it loose. Was surprised a few times by fishtailing on the road (no other cars travel this road more than once or twice a day). Backed out of a driveway to get back onto the road and got toned out for a fire call. Stomped on it and spun the wheels like crazy.

    Yep, have had for a little while.

    Now I'm trying to track down the intermittent ticking noise when I have my heater on. It sounds like something is in the blower motor or something because it speeds up with the higher fan speed. Comes and goes though...

    it's winter, there's snow on the ground, and NONE of my 3 T-legs are running or drivable... I still have the 2 trucks that have 4wd and are completely driveable, but I want 1, just 1 Legacy to drive...

    I realize this is nothing to you guys, but for out here in Davis, CA with an elevation of roughly 52 ft, I find it impressive (or depressing?)

    Both Monday night and tonight I worked the 6-10 PM shift. It hasn't rained, misted or drizzled at all, and I've returned to my car to find the windshield and rest of the vehicle completely iced over.

    Sure, maybe first thing in the morning, but after 4 hours? Too cold for my liking.

    Sorry, no pics. My camera battery is dead and I think I left the charger at school 100 miles away.

    YES!!! We finally got some snow here. about 3", which is alot for here. Anyway, got to drive my car in it for the first time. All I can say is

    I've always had fun driving in the snow, but this takes it to a whole new level!!
