No Garage

Did I mention 23 MPG average on my 350 mile drive to Florida? And that's with the front lower valance removed, so my aero was shit.

The front valance needs some cracks repaired with fiberglass, and maybe even get foglights mounted in the empty holes.

You need to get ground effektz so make Dakota slippery like a seal

Oh queso, for reals. I got a few quarts of Rustoleum Enamel in Gloss Smoke Gray. This will get rollled onto Dakota's body, and the camper top. Bumpers, grille, wheels, and other trim will be black.

I used that for my little 4x8 trailer. It finished better than I expected.

I expect to thin it a bit so it self levels

I got some fiberglass n schit. I think I'm going to try my hand and smoothing the front valance. The little 2.5 doesn't need all the same grille openings as a 5.2, but it has them. I will fill in half of them, and maybe add fog lights.in the empty fog light holes.

Should I get fog lights, or those LED amber turn signals like trucks have? BIGGEST TURN SIGNALS, EVER

Do you have fog down there?

[giant_mtb]

Fog lights are nice for critter spotting as they throw more light sideways.

It's foggy right now, but I also want to move back to New England

[Eye of the Tiger]

Yeah, true.

[Eye of the Tiger]

As it turns out, I decided to fiberglass over the foglight holes, and half of the lower grille. I also added grille mesh to the openings. Sun set way too early, and I ran out of warmness. Will have to finish fiberglassing tomorrow.

I tried to fix Dakota's second to last trouble code, P0443 for the Evap purge circuit. Well the ground switch in the ECU is fried. No Evap for Dakota.

[Eye of the Tiger]

This is my first time working with fiberglass, and it's just Dakota, so I winged it. I covered the lower bumper holes with mesh, fiberglassed around the edges, then covered the two outer holes with fiberglass. Fog light holes are also getting meshed and covered.

+0.7 MPG highway!

Pic of the inside. The outside should look nice once it's all painted.

Good news (?), the bank said it would be okay for me to sell Fiesta for less than I owe, and then continue making payments to pay off the balance.

It is officialy for sail. $10,000 with the CarSPIN discount.

[FoMoJo]

That does not sound like a good deal.
