I gave up trying to fiddle with it (it was shorter than the requisite 4 lines). Hence my new sig.

Added Stabil, topped off the gas, changed the oil and diff fluid last night. Parked the S in the corner of the shop and covered her for the winter. Had to dig out the snow brush this morning. Guess I timed that perfectly!

Mark, did they salt the roads there? Roads are still clear here in the lowlands, not so much about 5 miles away in the hills.

Glad I got mine turned around and backed in the corner yesterday.

Today I'll hook up the tender, shifter in reverse,top latches released, etd.

As for critters, I leave the trunk and hood up, tape a softener sheet over the air intake.

Windows up, and I've got a new stinkbomb called "fresh Cab". Putting a double dose in the cabin

Got a modern car with auto braking, lane departure, and other associated electronic nannies?

Don't take it through a car wash.

I don't think they salted, but there was a heavy wet coating of snow on the Civic and the lawn.

[QUOTE=A 2;24092766]Audi ends LMP1 WEC program. Will focus on Formula E instead

Le Mans/WEC - WEC: Audi ends LMP1 program

/QUOTE]

This is disappointing but not surprising.
Damn VW engineers screwed us there. Wish they had worked harder on cleaning up the oil burning system instead of relying on the cheat.
All electric will be forced on us sooner or later I guess.
Enjoy the fall of Rome while we can folks!
