    Looks like I'll be moving on.

    It's been fun, entertaining and informational, but I've decided to find the Speed a new home. I bought a '15 Mustang Eco-Boost convertible last month. My wife's decided to trade her '06 300C on a RAV-4, so I'm kicking in my Speed to ease her pain, reduce the insurance bill and clear out the...

    Heard an interesting rumor

    While having a tire fixed at Discount, I was talking with one of their guys who almost bought a 2010 at a Chevy dealer (6K miles $18K). The stupid smile just turned him off, as it does many people. The sales person told him Mazda was replacing the nose pieces "'cause they can't sell 'em'"...

    TPMS Warning

    Yesterday morning, the TPMS warning dinged. Shutting it off and restarting did not "fix" it. The tires looked fine (as radials will). When I got home, sure enough - the RF was down to 24#. Pumped it up and the alert went off. All good on the ride to work, but it alerted again when it was time...

    @()($**(@&*#!)# Broke my car today.

    Had to run a banking errand for my Mom. Pulled into a parking space that had a ridiculously high parking curb. Took the whole d@mned oil filter and sandwich connector off!! . Six quarts of oil on the ground. Had to have it towed (of course). Pretty sure the spin-on conversion platform is toast...

    D@mned panic button!!

    I've searched and found NADA! Is there a way to disable the panic button on the key fob?! I opened it up to just isolate the button from the contact, but it doesn't work like the one for my Ram. I hate that thing! I can panic all by myself :D

    Both fuses and the relay are healthy, the compressor just doesn't turn. Guess it's time for a dealer visit.
