After the second failure she didn't want to drive the car anymore and wanted something new. (2) I was just going to take it over as my DD but since it had been paid off for a couple years I was able to sell it for a decent amount of money and we paid off the last of our BS debt with that money.
After I replaced the two additional injectors it ran awesome yet again but it just made sense to sell it and use the money for other things. After that I got the itch to replace my DD F150 and started looking at SUV's since my wife new Sienna will haul just about anything. While doing so I realized I should just get another 35D because I already knew the whole thing top to bottom. So I kept a lookout for a low mileage fully optioned 2013 because its the last year of the E70 and I wanted something nice. When I found it, I jumped on it. I hope to be tackling all the delete work later this summer.

Nice! Right now I don't even want to think about my next car, as this one is a great dd, and it has the ability to tow my drift car too. I just recently saw a fully loaded f15 35d, that looked super nice, but I'm not as knowledgeable on the n57's known issues. a 2013 fully loaded e70 sounds like an absolute treat.
