Rotated the tires, changed the spark plugs(just about 100k), and replaced a 3rd brake light bulb. On the way out to the car, I noticed that someone decided to redecorate my bumper while I was on duty...



Good news is, it should all buff out, and I can just repaint the mudflap. In the picture it looks like the top of the flap was ripped off the screw, and it kinda was, but I think it will be fine if I just put the screw back through the flap.

If I go 50 miles from Ekaterinburg - I get the same thing: no TV, no Internet, cellular communications just beside the road. And yet - no plumbing, no gas. And the road disappears, if you go far enough to the side.
Ha! Half of Russia living in "the land of dreams!"
Hey buddy! Do you still dream? Welcome to Siberia, a blessed place where wolves can eat you in your own backyard on the way to the toilet!

Wives are like that OB, they know that men can be their own worst enemies when told "rest and relax". Patience pays off my friend, before you know it, you'll be back to 100%.

Really sorry that some twit rearranged your paint job Frenchy, how terribly nice of them to not leave a note or anything. Even parked out in the middle of nowhere, so far out that you need to camp overnight before you get halfway across the lot, some idiot will thump into your ride. It's almost guaranteed.

Gotta love that!

By the way...good luck with those BFGs...I had a set that lasted me about 15k miles...hopefully you don't live in a winter weather area because they do not like the rain or snow. Probably the worst performance tires I've ever owned. SSfan has/had a set on one of his wagons...pretty sure he disliked them about as much as I did.
