holy crap kris, somone donate a pressure washer to the kris foundation!!!

Just kiddin man, ya that looks like you went off roading with your baby. It's funny cause I dreamed last night that i was out driving in the TL with the Toyo T1S's on my car as the rubber, and all of the sudden it started to heavily snow, and I was like shit!!! I remembered what Kris had told me about not even attempting to use these when there's a snowfall, it won't get you anywhere!!! Weird dream!!!

someone lock him in a closet, take his keys, then set the building on fire. do it now.

Kris, pressure wash it, use a mild degreaser, just make sure you watch not to apply direct water or chemicles on the sensors on the throttle body or the sensors near it. i learned that one the hard way ehehehehhe....
