YAY MY CAR LOOKS RETARDED!!! I got the rear springs on in about 45 minutes and couldn't get the nut off the front strut to get the spring off. I have to drive it like that until friday when I can get it to the shop on base and pop it off with the air tools. Atleast I got to rotate my tires and paint my calipers.

those nuts are annoying, i usually dont even try takin the nut off without putting a pair of vice grips on the strut tube first! Usually works like a charm... unlike escalades or tahoe struts which tend to fall apart when trying to take them apart, junk!

You're still paying more for the E85.

I paid $4.05 today for 93 in Virginia. Thank god the Focus can still get 30+mpg.

It takes 30% more E85 to equal the same AFR you get with 93 pump gas. Sure, the E85 is cheaper, but considering that you have to fill up more often with less mpg puts you paying about the same if not slightly more every month than you would be paying for 93.
