One thing I will say if you plan to go on road trips is be careful driving behind vehicles. In LA and the areas around I haven't had any trouble but I've cracked two fog lights from flung stones so far on road trips and might have done more if I had replaced them sooner.

I've even seen some bounce off the hood on occassion. The foglights are fairly low and an easy target for bouncing stones. Tried looking for some type of protective covering but have yet to find anything useful...

I think Lamin-x May work for this. I believe they made it for the SVT Focus?

Thank you for bringing this up.

More along the lines of about 2000.....1,948 to be exact to get there. It was a long trip....did it on the Stock Turbo.....Wish I would've done it on my Gen2 GTX2860 but I didn't have it installed then.....[thumbdown]. It wasn't that bad of a ride down....My BAE wants to go to Cali next summer on another road trip.....So the FiST might be seeing the pacific Hiway! Yay....sordove excited.... due to Not much 93 OCT out there and poopy 91 OCT being available readily. But whatever! We will see....I wanna go back out to Glacier Montana in the Northwest corner of the state.....I took pictures of that place that can be screen savers for Windows 10.[clap]

Wuaoww!..I think that Montana State has lot of wonderful lakes and mountains to visit….I love the mountains as well as the sea…….But I must say I prefer the sea….(Climatic conditions are better there...and I'm an old dudy [hihi])…
Waiting for your pictures, I post one of my best places where I go….

Unfortunately I'm pretty bad about taking pics...

Need to find camera people to bring along for the road.

Yes I know. Even with my phone I'm bad. I'm just not really a picture taking person. Always think of it after the fact. I wish I were though. It'd be nice to have a few momentos to look at later.
