    New plates mounted. Took it out for spin as well. Felt good.

    Re: What did you do today non-detailing related?

    I got some new headphones, I have some really good Sony over ear headphones, but I can't wear them with the kind of headwear you need in the Australian summer. I've tried the little Bluetooth ear buds, but as soon as I put my phone in my pocket I get repeated signal drop outs, and cable ones are just annoying. So I went with these. They connect with the same Sony app as my good headphones, which has an EQ in it to fine tune the sound. I tested them out while mowing the lawn, again, after only 6 days. I could have waited another day but there is rain predicted tomorrow. The new headphones were fine, not as good as noise cancelling, but they're "in ear" so it was almost as good, and no drop outs. The sound quality was excellent.

    Yes, it’s a metal building with sprayfoam

    The bad thing of paying your cars off is you get use to no car payment and then a lot less apprehensive of getting a new one. I want a new car but that no payment is pretty sweet.

    Congrats though you two.

    I'm no saint on the road either, but the key thing is to do so out of other drivers' way. Living in the country, that is certainly a benefit, there are plenty of quiet roads out to enjoy your car without harming others.
    I doubt an event like that is giving the young ones the OK. They’d be doing it anyways. Kids burning out and driving stupid has been going on since the dawn of cars. Like blaming NASCAR or Formula 1 for kids racing…
