Bath time for Paddington and Boo Boo, followed with the weekly detail, nothing nicer than a clean HHR.

Now my back is killing me, someday I'll find someone that I trust to clean and maintain the critters to my standards.

I installed new Bosch Icon wipers. Now it probably won't rain for a week.

First of all, check the connectors and then - test wires.
Of course, if the fuse is really alive and the temperature is sufficient to activate the cooling fan.

Drove the Paddy-Wagon to the office, accomplished a day's worth of work in 6 hours, drove back home stopping by the Hess station for a "voluntary mugging". $58.30 lighter I am now feeling somewhat lucky that Paddy doesn't require Premium, and also remembering that the Challenger does...and its on fumes.

I noticed today while out paying the gas, electric, and the water bill that Shell REGULAR was $3.99 .9 a Gallon.

Not sure how much the Premium is, the signs don't list that anymore these days.
Have a 1/2 a tank so I did not stop to fill up. I only use Shell Premium in Morticia.

O.T., I bought a Thrush 17713 Turbo Muffler on Amazon today.

Just to give Morticia, a deeper tone.
We Can't do much to the exhaust systems in Cook County IL. as we are subject to EPA Inspections/Testing.

Friggin SEMI TRUCKS can BLAST out huge billowing puffs of black diesel smoke, but god forbid a car enthusiast wants to better his own car.

I read these sound OK, NOT ricer. So I hope thats true, or i'll rip it OFF.

Oh wait, you meant the Gas or the Muffler?

I'll have to start a thread then, and ask if someone with this particular muffler will post a Vid.

I'd really like to hear one before goin to the muffler shop and paying to have it installed and my oem tip welded on it.
I can Return it if I don't like the Sound of them. That is before installing it.
