smurf, thank you for those links. just read up on that. air conditioner always cycles on when I first fire mine. but I rarely run the air conditioner. I was taking my wife to pick up her car, both windows down kind of warmer humid but not super humid night. I typically turn off my AC as soon as...
man I was so wrong. I associated budgie with budget, and smugglers with loose cargo pants or basketball shorts. so I got the picture of the adolescent guy that hadn't quite got there yet trying to put on a show for the ladies and try to snag a prom date with a high-rise heavy wool hunting sock...
this makes good sense. i seem to recall you mentioning the words "give it the beans" several times😜 i haven't ever cleared my trip meter and it reads around 15.5 or 16 mpg. how... i have no idea. I'm maybe 30 minutes down a 60mph from town though so maybe that helps... whatever 👍

totally. I've seen tickets for purchase or free on the website, but have been stalling to get family vacation planned and then piggyback that on to the following week if possible.
i feel like its been there. i'll snap a pic for you next time. not as pronounced but definitely two dimples. like they went light on the spray adhesive there when they wrapped the wheel. its pretty soft behind those indents both sides. i tried a picture but it'll take shining a light across it...
