Anyone who has ever worked on a car has been in your position, and sitting cross-legged on a concrete floor with a dim shop light is its own kind of hell... Chalk it up as one of the rites of passage.

Had a hemi charger give me a thumbs up this morning, then pulled to the side to talk to me at a stop light. He wanted to know what I had in it. LOL
Rest in Peace Charlie!
Sold
Just a GT
Feels good, right?
Get a $8k-10k truck, drive the wheels off of it, and drive the g8 on the weekend.
I got my 08 sierra (crewcab, 8ft bed, 5.3 4wd, 170k miles or so) for under 6k. Its been indispensable, and because it's not new, I can treat it like a truck...

Took the 8 out of the garage for the first time in over a year, washed the dust off and took it for a ride around the subdivision...at one intersection we boiled the rear tires and got scratch going into 2nd and 3rd.
Bad side is my daughter says the Hyundai just doesn't do it for her anymore...

The Track
Best 1/4: 13.969 @ 102.70 @ Pueblo Motorsports Park, w/ DA of 3921'.
Changed the Dexcool.
I know, should have done it back in '14 at the 5 yr mark. Jacked the front up and started to undo the screws for the panel under the radiator, then saw the drain plug peeking through a hole in the panel. The radiator cooling channels looked pristine, peeking through the radiator fill port.
The dip stick on the overflow tank was dry. Only 31k on the car so check yours periodically. Thought there would be a low coolant warning light but no mention of one in the manual.
Local quick change oil place wanted $110. Got 2 gals of Prestone/GM approved Dexcool concentrate for $40 locally. Wally World didn't carry the concentrate.
Drove to work in the rain yesterday :-( I need a daily driver

I finally hooked the battery tender back up to it. Seeing that I haven't driven it in well over a month, I thought it necessary. It sure looks nice sitting on the hoist though. lol
My family comes first and weekends are all about my boys right now. When it cools off, I'll take it out. Hell, I bought oil and a filter for it 3 months ago and it's still sitting in the garage.
