- Double check the polarity before connecting anything to the battery posts
- If I know some work definitely needs to be done, but not an emergency, still order-up the parts this week.

I stopped making New Year’s resolutions a few years ago

As far as cars go, I intend to keep them especially well maintained, as I don’t intend to buy another vehicle for some time. Even decent used cars are outrageously expensive, imo

I am just wanting to get my garage finished up so I can get back to finishing up a few projects on my fun car…

I also need to install my new Anytime Front/Rear Camera…

Install my new Side Window Wind Deflectors (I’ve had for 2.5 months lol)…

Lots more upgrades and mods…

Only 21 days into the new year, and I I just added another one: If a nut you want to remove from a bolt won’t turn freely in the CCW direction, remember, it might be left hand threaded. Ask me how I know? … lol …
