Passed the test for the internship...now i wait until phase 3 whatever that may be

 

Good for you congrats, Miles.

 

Good job Bud..

 

I repaired the overhead display and the memory seat switch ( just plugged it in)

Noticed I was loosing coolant doh.

Found the water pump leaking.
Called the lot I bought it from on Saturday and they said bring it over we will fix it.

Good deal for me

 

Congratz dude!

 

So, the other week, I had to change out my FICM, as it decided it did not want to work right, and cold starts were becoming a real issue. Well, today was the first full fill up since that fix, and my MPG's have gone from the 12's to the 17's! To say I am happy is an understatement!

 

Well last night I seen my X on a flatbed wrecker. Not due to mechanical issue thou. Thank goodness.

I was out adventuring with the family on the "back way to Crown King AZ". I cut one tire on the trail at about 5000'

Did fine the rest of the trail thru CK THEN had another go out on me just as I hit pavement to air back up. WTF. Only had one spare so called roadside. 4hrs later the family and I were back home. What long day left the house at 9am got back at 2am the next morning.

So the X is down till I order new tires for it. Going with MTR's this time.

 

Sorry to hear about the lousy tire luck. At least you were wearing the right shirt!

 

Damn!! That sucks!! at least you had phone service! I thought you had 2 spares. We went to a hiking point here in CO we had to drive about 45 miles of dirt roads, I remembered our trip haha.



Hiked to Pawnee Butte. 5 mile hike in a cow pasture lol.

 

I know it is because of a cut in the tire but we have had nothing but bad luck with goodyears on all of our trucks. We won't have another goodyear on any of them ever again.

 

nothing really relating to the Ex today other then i drove it and got it all muddy from all the work going on in my yard and on my road.

I'm sitting at my desk today about 10am or so and i hear a police siren, then another then another...so on and so forth. I finally get up and really look and i see a large amount of police cars marked and unmarked surrounding a tow truck. So i decide i better go outside and see whats going on..about that time more are showing up and trunks are popping open and shot guns are coming out...i'm thinking okay this is getting interesting. They get the guy out of the truck, search the truck very quickly...then let him go and they all leave. it had a major road tied up for a good 10-15 mins. I'm thinking they are looking for someone and he may have fit the bill but they figured out it was not him...no idea but it was strange!

 

Crazy talk to many of you, but I let the 17 yr old take the EX to the grocery store all by herself today. Imagine that, they came home unscathed and I didn't have to go shopping. She loves driving it!

 

I bet the tow truck driver was puckered up a bit!

 

Congrats Miles...good luck on "phase 3"

 

I forgot how large these mirrors are. Thats a lot of information all at once. Im going to do the wiring this weekend and hopefully actually wash it.

Notice the sheriff driving the other way......yeah, he did a quick U turn. I was thinking he saw me with the phone but he wasnt after me. He went to check out a 72 Corvette up ahead of me. See the Vette?
