My car sat all last year. I got a new battery this year and I am getting ready to clean the K&N filters and change the oil. About 14K on the OD. Great car for me, but not a great investment to have in MI.
There is no way I am bringing my car out anytime soon. The potholes are unreal. We have the worst roads in the nation. That statement is a challenge to any of you. Tax dollars diverted and invested in shitty contracts by the state.
Don't even get me started on the gas and registration tax.

I was thinking about dumping the Fit and daily driving the Z again, but I think I'm going to buy SPL solid transmission and motor mounts for the Z instead

Jar, keep a lawyer in your back pocket for the unexpected. Feel sorry for you. But at the same time. Happy for you too. This chapter of your life coming to a close, and time to start another.

If my orange cutting pad has several cuts in it, will that affect the performance of it? There are several going in a circle.

Only issue I could see is the dispersion of the liquid being used could fold within the cuts on the pad causing an uneven distribution of product onto paint. But otherwise, no. I doubt cuts within a pad are detrimental to cutting. Or just buy a new pad. They're cheap.

Ill give it a shot and see how it works. Thanks for the input
My shipment from Adams came in with two blue, two orange and two white. I just hate waiting.

But I may have a second shipment coming of the same, so if thats the case then im fine.
