Thanks. It just makes it easier to read the pages don't you think?

Finalizing roadtrip to VA. The P5 will have some nice goodies. (wink)

Yeah, it does. But, it also lets me look at those cool wheels again....

Actually yesterday but didn't feel like posting when I got home.

Road trip to Masontown PA (just outside of Uniontown). My Aunt passed away and I drove in for the funeral. The P5 really made a bad trip into a fun trip.

Could have used some extra power when going up the mountains on I68 in Maryland but it was a blast going down said mountains.

Back in PA I hit a few 8% and 13% grade mountains with twisties. I never saw the sign for the mountain on I40 at the top of Uniontown, but WOW....steep and twisty. There were two areas for trucks to pull over and to quote the signs "Stop, check brakes now before proceeding" and the speed limit for trucks was 10mph.

So given the circumstances for my trip - friends, family, memories and the P5 made it bearable.

you pass through Friendsville on 68?

 

[CTt3P5]

Virgina?? If so then no as I was coming West from Hagerstown MD. Picked up 68/40 off of 70, and got off 68/40 at the Uniontown exit (14B).

I have not driven the p5 since Sunday. Out of gas, and the Accord was full.. Hope to drive it this weekend!

 

[gottacatchup]

went to buy an oil filter, planning on changing the oil in the school parking lot this weekend.

Did you do some fender rollin there in the back ? Also, what did those bad boys run ya ? They look sweet man.

Thanks again. No fender rolling as of yet, but I did get a minor rub on the rear/drivers side yesterday . I had the back loaded with heavy luggage and 3 adults on board; I hit a big "whoop" on the freeway at about 75 mph and got some decent spring compression. Upon close inspection, the tire does not look like it touched the rear lip so I'm at a loss. This happend to me one once before with my MSP wheels mounted up, when I had the wagon loaded up like the Grapes of Wrath coming back from Costco. I'll have to look a little closer. As far as where I sourced my wheels/tires, I got them from Edge Racing http://www.edgeracing.com/ . Following the PIAA link will give you an idea what I paid. I wanted to give a local shop the business, but the couldn't come close to a price match ... I highly recommend them.

is it just me, or does that sound like a site I don't want to look at from work, and probably not even from home.........

Hehe..it's the President's last name. Pronounced: MAN-A-SI-AN

 

[aMaff]

sure whatever


Anyway, I washed my spare tire / wheel today. No! Not my gut. Assholes, you know I'm sensitive about losing my girlish figure

Anyway, I kept 1 of the wheels and tires from when I had the wreck as a full size spare. It's been covered in brake dust for like 6 months now and I got sick of getting dirty every time I had to move it to get something out of the utility closet. Anyway, seeing as I'm going to FL this weekend (a 5 hour trip) I figure I may as well clean 'er off and throw er in the trunk. Bungee ftw!

Greyman...Waiting forthat howto....are p5's prewired, or do you need everything?

That was the good thing about my dakota. It had all of the wiring for pwr windows/locks/mirrors already in there. everything was plug-and-play!
