Moaning All

Made an appt this morning for Monday with dealership for two items:
They will need the cars(s) all day. They are flipping the bill for the rents and hopefully waiving ext warranty $50 deductable on one of the cars. The bro has all the luck......meaning no deductible on his ext warranty...drats.

1) Go faster
2) Stop noise

Good day

And Happy Friday !

Yeah, worst bit was I couldn't even move over to another lane due to all of the traffic (gotta love the 10!).

Had to avoid tire treads the other day - was hoping others would see it and not kick it up into me, as I've had that happen on my previous car twice.

Try using the WAZE app. If you live in a tech savy area, most road hazards will be reported, and you will get a warning.

here is a WAZE thread I stated a while back with some member feedback.

Does anybody else use WAZE app in car?

No sport package brakes but felt very secure in the stopping power!!! Now I know in moments like that the Z can definitely perform.

Hey there stranger. Hope all is well after the incident that shall remain secretive since I assume you deleted your thread per Mr. Kenchan's advice

I rowed through 1st, 2nd, and 3rd hard pulling out of the Nissan dealership only to correctly anticipate that an idiot driver was going to pull out of a driveway across three lanes directly in front of me, forcing me to slow down 30+ mph on a 60 mph frontage road I was there purchasing a replacement hood prop clip for the manual hood prop which I removed after installing the Z1 hood struts The new clip isn't going on the car though - it will be stored with the hood prop
