Good show!

Keep us posted on your further adventures (especially like the stuff about keeping the VX running, what works, what doesn't etc.).

Keeping her running is easy. Blood sacrifice, (i have had surgery, needed stitches, busted knuckles, black eye and so on thanks to this truck), she needs your blood. Don't be afraid to curse at her, she likes it...sometimes. You also have to praise her when she deserves it, but punish her with the BFH as well. She is a bipolar monster, and you have to love the highs and lows. But seriously, I have never had engine problems, changed the tranny 5 yrs ago, just never flush it. Run full sythetic, and just turn up the radio to ignore creaks, rattles, pops and bangs. Keep rags to wipe up all the drips, and most importantly, take her out and drive her, no babying, really drive her.

A lot better than my cross country move. I also moved from Virginia (Alexandria), but moved to Humboldt County in California for school (not weed I swear!). My trip was pretty much all I-80, sooooo boring aside from the drugged up cat meowing and falling over in the hatch of my CRZ. Best of luck in your new home!
