Nik that looks great, I remember it before it got painted. They even seem to run better afterwards, don't they?

I also have practically mothballed the Mercedes, the Subaru wagon gets such better gas mileage, on regular, too, and I put in the factory accessory subwoofer sold in the dealer's parts department, and the sound is absolutely fantastic, maybe in part because the interior is that of a station wagon

I understand your pain about diesel prices. I filled up on Friday in Grass Valley and noticed that they were selling Diesel for
$4.89 a gallon!!!!! The sign said that they now put Techron in Diesel fuel, but come on - $4.89???!!

That said. we still want to have you on the Diesel Drive on July 19, you are still coming, aren't you?

That wonderful SD of yours is one of the "anchor cars" for the diesel drives, so we need it, and you, at the next one. It will be good to see you there Nik
