Today was the 1st roadtrip with the Turner bits installed. And yeah. Do it.

You ever felt that sorta 'wiggle' on a hard brake or in the middle of on offramp? Not with these silly things. Road feel was amazing for ~4 hours. Smoothest thing I have driven and been UNconcerned about road construction, road debris- or even missing ANY of it if I wanted to. It's just so damn solid.

It really does feel like this is what they were after when it was designed. But none of the housewife target would have the harshness. Screw them, fellas! That's not HARSH! That's what we like to call- the ROAD! So. Like when ya lose a fnckin tire.. ya KNOW ab it before the light comes on and your a$$ is off the bridge! (I Haaaaaate bridges)

This thing will haul and haul and haul. And it'll haul ass doin it. I just did the math for today's road trip. 17.33MPG. In a gussied up 4.8is with rollers in the back, I think she did pretty well! I usually have cruise set to 88MPH cause of where the needle is and so forth... But there warn't NOBODY out, so I ran near triples on a few occasions. I might actualy LIKE runflats.

A few stereo mods and I think we'll be done. Though there ARE those Euathane rear bits...
