Whose X has been getting ignored?

Mod wise! I have a whole slew of mods to install in the X, but have to work most everyday this holiday. That, and the wife's new to her Escalade has been eating all my time getting it setup for her/kids

Off top of my mind I've got this stuff in garage waiting install

2-4" lift drag arm drop bracket
Overhead DVD player
Front/Side/Rear LED's
Interior LEDs
Clearance lights
Backup lights
Backup camera

Blah, I'll do it tomorrow

I have a blue spring for my fuel system still in the box, and a second gen wicked wheel still in the box. I finaly put the new front shocks on, only about 8 months after installing the rears. new rear calipers still in the boxes and on the shelf. I was forced to install the front calipers recently because they started hanging up. luckily I didn't destroy my new rotors and pads.

My EX has been getting ignored a lot lately, not an entirely bad thing.
I last put gas in it on Nov 26, have only driven it to work once since then and so far in Dec it has only moved back and forth in the driveway to allow the ATV access to plow all of the snow.
As far as mods and service waiting to be done, I have an F-650 dash, foglights mounted but not wired up yet, need to redo my CB/scanner mounting with the new dash, antenna mounting, get a new 7 pin trailer plug socket to fix my broken one, additional gauges and mounts. This Spring I will be doing the 100k service to include plugs, boots, filters, trans flush (hopefully 6.0 cooler), PS flush, and I still have to swap in my 4.88 front axle housing.
