Why's there a huge gap in the front wheel well, and a small one in the back? You got some dead bodies back there or something?

wait until the end of the week. Mine will look worse than that. We had snow Friday, Sat, Today, and it is forcasted the rest of week. To make it worse they are salting and sanding like crazy.

Even more of a bummer is that my TRD RSB was installed Fri and I have yet to really try it out.

It has been snowing here for like 4 days straight and is supposed to snow every day for another week at least. My car never gets clean :( If I wash it it just gets dirty again.
Please stop humping my car, owner privilege!

I think the back is lower than the front because I am parked on a slight uphill incline. I don't have any dead bodies in the back... but the trunk is packed with my tools and equipment. I use Sabrina for work.

abusing Sabrina

Postby noodlerooney » Mon Jan 26, 2004 7:32 am

I know how you feel.
Thats why I've installed hot/cold water spigots with mixing valve outside my garage with freeze proof valves.
I just could not stand to see my vehicles covered with salt, I have to give them at least a rinse.
Of course I have what you could describe as a glacier at the bottom of my driveway, and I have to put my skates on while washing, but a salt free car is worth it!
My neighbors' think I'm crazy, they just don't get it.
I'm not really crazy you know, was just examined last week, everythings fine ... for now.
