If I would have kept my Civic, my TL would probably be hibernating too lol. I love driving my TL in the snow though. The biggest difference I can feel between the two cars is the weight, it feels more stable in the TL and of course MOAR POWER!

We should plan a Winter meet for all of us to get together and maybe have some lunch somewhere. We can show off our Winter rides! LOL!

Maybe sometime after the Holidays? Thoughts?

Hello Twin Cities. I have an 06 TL. Just replaced the tranny and now dealer says I need to replace:
ABS Modulator - $1930
Steering Rack - $1525
Fix Oill Pump Leak - $1103

Does anyone recommend a shop that is both Honest and Reasonable? I dont trust the dealer and I'm recently on a budget.

THANKS

Ok, so the video is now public. Enjoy.
I am working on the others. It takes about an hour to upload each one. But I will work on them this week.

Not sure if Jorge filled you guys in, but my sled took a nice barrel roll and my GoPro was not on it when I flipped it over... Clips are on the GoPro, so IF I find it next week when I'm riding the trails, I can hopefully salvage the videos.

Good news is I was on my families property, and I know where I rolled it.. Bad news is they've had about a foot of snow since I was last up there.. So it should be interesting

I would recommend Joe but you have to hope he visits the site. He is really busy in the winter with his kits in sports.

I am going to start the coil overs this week. If anyone wants to come over that would be cool. I have to get a couple of jack stands. I only have 2. I want to jack the whole car up.

That's exactly what I was thinking of doing when I was taking pictures but it would be hard to drive on the opposite side of traffic and take pictures at the same time lol.

I'm still down for a Winter meet. We should get some lunch or something on a weekend. Maybe at the MOA or some place, the upper parking ramps usually have more open spot.
