Got her extremely dirty and stuffed with snow. Climbed her over several snow plow lines and up to then down from 5500 feet. But she performed for me as she always does. Kept me warm and cozy with the Bleu dog thru the night.

Filled it up with fuel 53.00 worth of middle grade at $2.89 a gallon.
I wish gas was that cheap here! :(

Drove the S10 to pickup some rims :). However, they're not quite in the shape described. I'm gonna hang on to them and see what I/professionally can be done to fix corrosion. If I can't find anything else, which now that I bought some, they'll pop up like wild flowers, they are a good starting base. I'll probably start a thread on aluminum wheel maintenance and repair.

Filled up the S10. I got 22.92mpg with all 50-55mph and about 30mi of 65mph, but everything was with my 350lbs of sand in the back. I'm sure it would be higher if I had the idle figured out.

:wtf?: It's $3.05 for regular here.
:wtf?: It's $3.14 here!!

Maybe I need to rethink the trip I am planning in a couple of months...:dunno:
The Caddy burns PREMIUM ONLY...:lol:
Um...91 is $.20 more than 87, but I just go across the river to MN and then its only $.12 more (the Silverado burns it now after the BB tune).


Power washed my "new" rims at the car wash and gave the S10 a bath too. Took my grandma to get groceries. Then shoveled what little snow was on here driveway, knocked the ice away from the furnace exhaust vent, and checked the level of gas in their tank for their furnace.
