The best bit is on the floor

The list of upgrades and parts getting replaced is longer than my..... Well almost as long as my arm. The stack of bills is getting pretty high too

still not satisfied with the front wheel bearings after adjustment; probably need to replace them but have no time right now

left rear tire keeps rubbing the fender over hard bumps, need to check if it is the proper offset (was replaced)

Fuel economy seems to be going down
