skool is upon us. I cant believe the summer flew by so fast. I'm going to dorm instead of commute this year so the celi had to get stuffed in to the garage. dont worry though, I took care of her. First I spent SEVEN HOURS washing, clay barring, polishing, washing again, drying, and waxing the **** out of the paint one panel at a time. It was brutal. I dont think its possible for a surface to get cleaner than what I unleashed. Next I changed the oil with mobile 1 10-30 synthetic. Some will say that was a waste of money but I'm not going to let some cheap/old oil break down in my car over winter -_-. After that came the bottle of stable followed by a full tank of gas. Finally, I took the battery out and put on the car cover. As soon as my little brother swore to never, ever let any evil befall my car I was content.
