heh... do not look at me..

I cannot remember the last time I vacuumed the interior or washed the car.
Front bumper is falling off on the passenger side due to snow plows leaving a huge pile of snow in the middle of the road at night.
Passenger side front fender and that corner of the hood are still beat up from my brother in law and thanks to fedex destroying my replacement fender.
two golf ball sized dents in the driver's door from a stolen bicycle.
Bent rim
original fuel filter.

but, she runs great still, even with a bad tps..
I often take her to redline for the sheer joy of it.. and I still get over 30mpg average per tank.
Original clutch at 119,000 miles.
Mobil 1 synthetic every 4500 to 6000 miles.. depending on looks, time, and how the car sounds
almost no rattles.

Haha. Just ask Jaws021 or Blacktibs how clean my engine bay is.

Anyways. Screw babying my car. It gets driven HARD everyday.

6k shifts at least 20-25.... per day? Maybe more. I would have to say that only about 10% of the time I actually shift under 4k. lmao.gif

Of course, I have a brand new motor and tranny at 60k miles, replaced under Hyundai Warranty. So why even bother babying the motor? Hyundai will replace it if you break it. They did mine! hahahahaha.

But I do maintain the motor, since I drive it so hard. Only Mobil 1 Synthetic and Hyundai Oil filter, yatta yatta yatta. smile.gif

Wow, you are what should I say? Maybe Anal, but in a really good way. I wish I took that good of care of my tib.

I bet, I beat the piss out of my car worse than any other tib owner, except the ralliers.
