What did you do with your Z today VI (ON TOPIC DISCUSSION ONLY)

the Z to work today. Nice peaceful cruise at 10:00AM, no traffic to speak of, lots of law enforcement lurking though.

Whew!

When you get it back, go buy a lottery ticket.

Edit: Adding my own experience today:

In the past 5 weeks, I've been on a two-week long trip and a one-week long trip, both driving my wife's Altima. I bought my Z in March, and the last time I put gas in it was probably at least two months ago.

Now with the background out of the way: I pulled up to a gas pump today and was totally confused when I couldn't find the gas door release on the floor. Fortunately, my wife was with me and "helpfully" reminded me how to open the gas door on the Z. I can't decide if I just need to drive the Z more or if I need a full-time guardian to lead me through life.

Not selling, you couldn't get it away from my cold dead hands....LOL The car needs paint. Working on that. Lots of parts boxes stacked up against the wall. If all goes well, you can see it in person a ZNationals. Let's just say " TRACK DAY!!!!"
