    I just went to the VW dealer to look at a Golf R. Would be a nice upgrade of my GTI but not nice enough to pay what they want. They lowballed me on my trade (after asking if I actually use the car because it looks brand new) and wanted full sticker on the R, said no discount at all on those. I said bye and came home happy in my GTI.
    Yeah I was at a dealer in Saturday with my sister and they have a few Rs on the lot. But yeah I can't really justify the price difference on a GTI vs an R. What did they offer? If you don't mind me asking.

    When I'm working hard, so is the workhorse. Today I gave the Ranger a good going over. Even the tray, underside and rubber mat got some attention.









    Finished up with another coating of Reload.

    $17k. Carvana and Vroom offered $17.2k and $17.5k respectively. For that little I’ll just keep enjoying my car.

    Agreed. Not worth taking the hit.

    Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I polished the woodgrain inside my car with Meguiars Plastx. I think it turned out real nice.
















    Then I used it to remove some fine scratches on this plastic lens display. I forgot to take before pics, but if you look closely at the top/bottom of this pic you can see the scratches that had covered the entire piece prior to the Plastx.




    After:



    Next I’m going to polish the gauge cluster..
