A Christmas WASH

Gave the TL a wash for xmas. It was about 45 degrees here today on Long Island and it's been over a month since her last wash. It's been snowy, rainy, bitter cold and finally its a lil warmer out. So that's all I got the TL for xmas. lol Also took care of my fathers TSX for him.


After taking this pic, I checked the tire pressure cuz it looked low, but the car leans on the uneven driveway. Still at 33psi

LOL

^^^^Thanks for the compliment, yeah I wanted to throw some "funny" in the mix since there is nothing special about the pics of the car.

He use to have an 03 TL-S. When the TSX came out he fell in love with it and traded it in. I loved his TL-S but couldnt afford it at the time, so when I could I got this one. TSX is a bit too slow for me.

Looks good. I plan on cleaning my car this week since there is going to finally be some nice weather here in the Northeast.

Lookin very clean. I don't have a driveway to use until the spring. Moving somewhere with a driveway in month, but then it will probably be too cold to handwash.

The 3G TL was too harsh, more sport less luxury. I personally agree. The TSX is such a nice car to drive in, and gets great highway mileage. His mileage was very high on his TL (50k in 2yrs) and quickly traded it in before it lost even more value.

He is very happy with the TSX, and plans to see what 09 offers for the TL, then he will probably come back. Either that or the MDX.

As far as weather, it looks like rain is in the forecast for tomorrow night and Thurs, but I don't care. I wanted the salt/sand off of the cars. Hopefully we will get some random warm days so I can keep the cars somewhat clean. Thanks for the replies/comments.

Must be nice guys. We haven't been getting enough rain to lessen the water restrictions so that we can wash here in GA. I envy you all.
