OK given where this thread is going, I'll share yesterday's excitement with you. Drum Roll...I bought a new set of wipers from my local dealer. I'll keep you updated on how the installation goes and the performance of these new OEM motorcraft parts, if there is interest ;)

Can't wait to see them babies... so excited !

Yep, 3 years have gone by and it's battery time again. The original lasted 3 years and 1 day after I rolled the car off the new car showroom. I replaced it with the identical Motorcraft. Now it's another 3 years, just past the full replacement warranty. Instead of going pro-rated I shopped around and got a Wal Mart Everstart equivalent as recommended by a member here. $88 verses $166 every where else. It looks like this battery is made by Optima?

OK so I know many of you are eager to hear about the installation and performance of my new wiper blades (Not). After half an hour I figured out which of the 5 plastic bits matched the wiper arms, but could not get them to attach. (I think Hellen Keller must have prepared the instruction sheet.) Before I scratched the hood, I went back to the dealer (tail between..). The tech attached one, but struggled with the second, so asked for help. (I'm feeling gooood now) The service manager broke the plastic piece on the second (now I'm feeling redeemed), but got another piece and snapped in on. So far they are performing well.

Slow and steady I figured I should have the car on the road January.. lol

Fortunately, Sacramento has a lot of days you can enjoy the car in January. Not so much for us in the... Salt belt/ Snow belt. I am looking forward to the completion of your car, good luck and stay positive.

Yes it hasn't got below 62 degrees this winter yet and usually sunny hardly any rain lots of snow 40 miles up the mountain that's what happens when you live in the valley. Yes I can't wait the car looks very clean but I still got a long ways to go after they get it running. Have to hook up all the stuff for the pods, putting in the aftermarket oil cooler. And of course a tune first time ever tuning a car plus I got to do a data log now that sounds like.
