    There are downsides to a lower ride height.

    Funny thing is that I got into the parking lot just fine by going at an angle. Should've done the same coming out. But when it's a combined entry/exit, you can only take up so much space.

    Finally installed my homemade rear AUX stereo cables. Thanks to my small hands, I didn't even have to remove the glovebox.

    Drove it to work today for the first time since around August or September. Still under 17600 miles!

    Finally was warm enough to put some custom vinyl lettering on.
