Almost forgot to post this...

FINALLY got my Maven knob from HeelToe yesterday and installed it. So far I like it, I just wish it was a little bigger. The weight and countersunk is nice, but it feels really small in my hands

Here's a pic I snapped today. This was the extent of the weather men's predictions of 9-17 inches in my area.

That's just karmic revenge for us all telling our wives that we're going to give them a solid 9 inches on our first date. Equally disappoint

Man! I was actually gonna put them on this week since my 5mm spacers came in the mail the other day. Unfortunately this godamn snow and my upcoming trip to FL made me decide to wait another couple weeks to put them on. 19s and low profile tires + 1000 mile road trip=unwanted trouble

Got on the road this morning; 330 miles or so to Miami beach;

Took an exit to switch drivers and the road suddenly ended and turned to sand...and eventually a photo opportunity







You guys have cows in Florida?

Hawks at the Heat game



So far, it's been nothing but nice cars, nice beaches, beautiful women and delicious mojitos.

Well. My trip is almost over!

Been on the road for about 7 hours so far. Just about 2 hours from home.

The TL is doing really well with all the driving. It'll be about 27mpg average for a total of 2500 miles. That includes all highway to and from Miami but also a lot of traffic and stop/go driving in Miami. So not too bad!

She's filthy though
