    I had D'Arcy's do the work, and it seems like the clunk is more prominant in the rear left, but still clunks everywhere. Told me that the engine/valvetrain noise I'm hearing is normal, as well as the suspension. Right... tiny heaves in pavement shouldn't produce a loud "thunk". They didn't do anything with the steering, and put a ton of surface/spider scratches on the door around the handle gasket they replaced. I'm going back next week and will have to take the tech with me to show the bump noises and steering squeak. Sheesh, poor girl doesn't like the cold anymore than I do.

    Took it out of the garage for the 1st time in 2 weeks. I put 5 gallons of gas in it. Then drove it around until the battery charge reached 26%. It was at 14%.
    I'll drive it again tomorrow.

    The weather has been too lousy to drive it. We had 21 inches of snow and the county must have dropped a 1,000,000 tons of salt. Even after we had two inches of rain a few days ago there's still piles of salt on the streets.

    What kind of charger ?? I may need one.

    When I was up in NY the Friendlys I use to eat at as a kid was gone. It was at the top of the list to take my wife and son. It was next door to my dads shop as a kid so I went there almost everyday.
