Why not driving it?Sweet! Thanks for the link. My wife says I seem to be always going for the "vindication" and that link is a good one!
Anyway, the car is no longer on the road, but still on the property and today I had it in the garage and replaced the blower fan that had stopped working just so I can say, "there is nothing wrong with it, could put it back on the road any time.". I vacuumed it out and played the radio for a bit and I really miss driving it. Best stereo I have ever owned.
Its back on the road! Long story, all detailed here:The NARFmobile, My 2001 Golf TDIWhy not driving it?
Too funny. Now you just need sidewinder missiles behind the headlights for left-lane campers.
Sidewinders? Fugheddaboudit. They're not meant for ground targets.Or for those pesky snipers hidden behind overpasses/signs with their laser/doppler "guns", those are tough... They never miss you no matter how fast you go. In fact they tend not to notice slower targets.
Well, here's a few things I've piddled with. Nothing fancy, just different shapes.
Yep, I use the push button start and the cruise control every day.Thanks! I really like what you did, too. Did you get the whole setup working like you intended?
