Yea I don't get how a lot of audio gear are ridiculously expensive these days yet I find the old stuff sounded just fine at a fraction of the money when new. These days I just buy my stuff used.

Car felt completely fine, but I took it easy till I got home. I'll check it again tomorrow but I guess I need an obd thingy now too.

I'm wondering if it's because today when I filled up at Costco it was right when the tanker showed up. Normally I avoid stations when that happens but I really needed the gas at that point..

So hopefully it's just sediment-related or something..

To zero it out to the top of the hour. I use it a couple of times a year as the clock tends to drift. I match it up with clock on my phone.

I also don't do car payments so that tempers my buying lust a bit.

That sucks.

Costco goes thru a boatload of gas. Major turnover. I would guess they have some of the cleanest tanks in town.

The thingy I got was only $11 on Amazon and if all you have to do is read codes, the Torques Lite app will do, and is free.

Well looks like road condition is still crappy, but good enough to keep the main office open today. Back to work...

Yeah I should just get my own.

I’m waiting at Oreillys now for a second employee to get off a break so they can come out to my car and scan.
