Left for work early, ran it through the wand wash, dried it...went to work with a shiny clean car. Still pretty in rich man's white after all these years.
Now I'm sitting here, and it's too hot. Sweating at my desk...
Strip down to your shorts. Your coworkers won't mind.
And if anyone has anything to say about it, I can call them out for harassing me! You can't harass me...either it's shorts and topless...or I am too hot.
Think it'll fly? Good thing it's tomorrow now...don't have to test it. And no Arthur, no mankini for me. Borat can pull it off, me, not so much.
Otherwise, came to say, 198 km and I'll hit the big 200k on the Fusion. Yikes. Wonder what I should do to it...fluid flush? I've heard/read that can actually be bad for the trans if nothing's wrong. Then again...can it really hurt? Lots of (mis)information on the internet. I don't think it calls for anything 'til 240,000 km.
Maybe spark plugs. But it still runs fine.
Coolant maybe...maybe??
Starter needs a good lube job, keeps hanging up a bit on start up and jingle jangle jingles. Or maybe just splurge and buy a new starter. Still can't think I've spent anywhere close to $1000 in mechanical repairs on this thing.
Hopefully I can get to the brakes soon, but might as well wait 'til after I hit the big 2.0.
It is supposed to go to the body shop in the next while to get that wee bit of rust fixed. He figured a few hundred (vs the local big guy quoting $1300+ish
). I don't need the whole 1/4 painted, just keep it simple. The factory clear coat is so perfectly smooth I don't want all of it re-sprayed only to have orange peel.
My little shop will do what I want, and it'll cost a shitton less.
