Touché, gentlemen, but i have a fewpoints to make:

I never had my dash off before....

And it rattles like a SON of a bisquit. Idling, bumps, low revs, music, earthquake halfway across the continent, you name it.

Super easy to take off and reinstall the same as it came off, was maybe 10 bolts. Take off apillars, pull off defroster panel, dash pieces, then pull the bolts across side to side and by windshield, then worm airbag panel through dash as you pull the dash up.

I used foam tape and duct tape. Weighed maybe .35 lbs. Wellll worth it.

Going to back the ol girl out of the garage when I get home from work, and apply a nice coat of wax to the new wheels.

I plan on driving her to work Monday since it's going to rain tomorrow and wash the crud off the roads.

Download the gopro app immediately.

The app allows you to view the photos/videos instantly and acts as a remote. I can be in the car with the gopro outside and click record. It's a must have

You have to be within 15ft or so or else it can lose connection. That's the only downfall but most all cases you are within the 15

It is. I'm still playing around with it. Came with the piece that allows you to stick it on the car but haven't had a chance to do that. Might make a video just going around the neighborhood or something

Set it to wide

We had record highs of 15C/59F today so I said screw it. Called my insurance broker and got driving insurance back on. Took it out for a spin tonight. Felt great to be back in something lower to the ground compared with the Nitro. Sure missed that SC sound as well.

Still likely selling it but will be hard to do the closer it gets to summer...

Drove 980 miles to drop off my little brother.

Also floored it at a low altitude and roasted tires all the way through first gear. This is bad enough NA I can't imagine with boost
