I was literally yelling at the wifey in the passenger seat just to have a conversation during the wash. I don’t remember any of my other cars ever being this loud, even the convertibles. It sounds like rolling around in a tin can.

Anyways, just felt like sharing. The car is so good it’s hard to find things to truly complain about…. But I finally found something I don’t like!

serves you right running your car through an automatic wash

Turned my cheap hf tool cart into a snap on version. Now the tools don't bounce back when I throw them at it.

You have a cherry blossom red tool cart. RESPECT.

harbor freight discount tool red. they make a lot of stuff in it.

i don't have pictures, but the carts been re-built with 10" pneumatic tires, and the entire bottom was re-welded with 1/8" plate strips to reinforce it. it's a monster cart now! all the welds were covered in cardinal red because i had it...

I'm guessing the aluminium amplifies it. There's a coarseness to the road noise over the front wheels (aluminium front guards) that sounds comparatively more pronounced when compared to the overall NVH volume in the cabin.
