That is a good question. Maybe the wife has a car and they want to carry furniture on the weekend? Tow a boat on the weekend? They used to be a bit cheaper than cars, because they were so stripped down, but not these days. Are they any cheaper than a full size body on frame SUV?

I bought a 40"x12" piece of black mesh for about $15... I haven't installed it yet but it seems like it should help protect the radiator. No grill shutters yet.

Seems like there are a lot of tire sales in the summer and early fall.

I bought a 5 pack of the rubber 14mm Honda type. They last indefinitely.

The tire shop might have some policy about the age of the tires, so they don't want to service them. If you have the place, time and energy you could try and remove one to check it, but I don't think I would worry too much about it, although you still might want to rotate the tires. If they...

I think you should hope it's something simple, like a snapped cable. It could be. I had a clutch cable snap on me once, but the shifter cables haven't failed me. That doesn't mean yours won't.

There was just something on TV with a guy recommending replacing tires after 10-12 years regardless of the mileage. You have 50,000 miles on the car, how many on the tires? I would guess the environment where the car is stored (since it's not driven very much) could affect cracking, etc. I...

It doesn't look too difficult to replace. Here is a link to a site where I bought my maplight LEDs for the 2721 types they have: https://www.superbrightleds.com/led-light-bulbs-universal-finder/miniature-and-subminiature-bulbs?bulbnumber=96307 You might want to find a more local vendor, but...

That is pretty weird. I bought some batteries, I think they were a 4-pack. The first one(s) were ok, but when I tried to use the remaining batteries several years later they were already low. Did you buy some fresh ones this time? I had to go out and buy another pack.

They have that grill material on Amazon, various size and gauge of the wire grid. Did you have to remove the front bumper, or any of that stuff? I saw a tumbleweed down in New Mexico that was about the size of a car. Nobody hit it before it blew off the other side of the highway, on its way to...

Did you glue those on, or some kind of fasteners?

I have noticed most of the bugs in my grill are in the lower 4-5 inches, so I'm thinking it might be a good idea.

which particular DRLs on Amazon?

I agree about the 17" wheels. They are probably a bit more robust as well as providing more cushion, and I find the handling is decent enough for me with the 65 profile tires. How are the floor mats? do they come in any color other than black?

Do you have heated seats?

Mine is a 6MT, so I go by feel. I did replace one of the maplights with a red LED, which is great for very low level illumination.

Better than Volvo?

I used the procedure to turn off my DRLs, but I intend to wire the fog lights to use as DRLs 'on demand' since Mazda hasn't provided us with that.

The highest priced batteries are usually the AGM (sealed glass mat). They are available from various companies. I don't know that any particular battery company is much better than the others. AGM might have some advantages but all batteries can run down when they sit for a period of time. You...

If the door has been worked on before maybe the clips will be a little easier to pop out.
