Why are you selling it Mark??? I know you've done some upgrades with your car since the last meet but haven't gotten a chance to check it out. Are you considering an SUV/Van because of the second baby?
I'm thinking about freeing up some cash for some invenstments coupled with the fact I never get to drive her. I have a company car and have been driving that most of the time. I only have about 6k mi on the car and she's almost a year old. Already have a SUV so I really have no need for this one.

How about using your car as the company car and get it expensed? It would be tough for me to drive another car knowing my car is just sitting there. I was without her for about a week last week while she was at the dealer and it was driving me mad.

Having said that, I understand your dilemma. Good luck in your decision.

CarLab can reinstall your AIBs. What else are you considering doing?

Actually, if we do decide to hit up CarLab and if anyone wants to get something done, let me know so I can schedule it with Darwin. It'll probably have to be small, easy stuff unless you want to spend the whole day there.
Can Darwin also hardwire my V1? Please ask him if he can re-install my AIBs and hardwire my V1. Thanks.

Are you serious that you have not had V1 hardwired?

Well, I try not to mess with electrical stuff to much. I can do it and it might take a few tries, but it would be easier to pay someone to do it right the first time.
