Congratulations Bill! How do you like the lwf?

Left for work early this morning and took my car to a 'quarter wash.' Hardly ever use them but the car was really filthy. Got home early, re-installed my sport seats (took out my A8's).

Drive tomorrow before the rain comes in....

I washed it yesterday (in the LA rain, no less) because it was SOOOOO dirty. Today I started it up for the first time in over a month and it ran like poop for the first 20 minutes. Took it to my wrench who chastised me for not driving it enough.
