| I changed the oil today for the first time. I had no idea the last time it was changed so I thought my best bet would be to change it. I used Mobil 1 Synthetic oil. My friend uses it in his '99 4Runner and he hasn't had any problems. I also cleaned up the interior since it was a little dirty. I checked the air filter and it was filthy from that Texas dust I guess so I ordered an Amsoil replacement. Everything else appears to be working well. I'm happy :) |

| I removed the sunroof wind-deflector, roof rack cross bars, and the running boards today. I didn't like the way the running boards looked and they just make it harder to get in and out of the truck. I also installed the Amsoil air filter. |

| I changed the oil today. 17,129 miles. It was surprisingly dark in color. It was in there for abut 6,400 miles, and I thought the Synthetic oil would last longer. I'm thinking maybe there was a little more oil left from the previous oil change (which was very dark) that was left over. Other than that, no complaints :) |

| I changed the oil today. 21,950 miles, about 5,000 miles since previous oil change. It's amazing how fast I can do an oil change when it's freezing outside. :) |

| I brought the truck to the dealer today to fix a problem with the clutch pedal. It was squeaking loudly when I pressed it. They changed replaced a Spring Bushing, no charge, it's still under warranty. |

| 23,450 miles. There was some really warm weather here in southeast Michigan so I decided to install the Bug Deflector which my friend Keith bought for me as a birthday present. Installation was simple and I am pleased with the way it looks and peforms. It is the Bugflector II, made by Ventshade. Click here to see a picture of the Bug Deflector. |

| I sold the truck. I couldn't afford the payments anymore. As much as I liked it, I had to let it go. Today I gave it to the new owner. Maybe someday I'll be able to afford to have another one but for now I'm going to stick with the Rx-7. |
