'08 Acadia down three months. New chains, VVT solenoids, cam sprockets all kinds of sensors, new fuel injectors, gaskets everywhere, and wire repairs. Slow work and tedious. All kinds of distractions. Finally moves under its own power. After leak checks, finally assembly to put it back on the road. One more vehicle distraction before putting in some real wrench on time on the X5.

Did a 4 corner brake job on the Ghia. Cost of working on this thing is very comforting. Brake drum and rotors, $30/each. Wheel cylinders, $11/each. Rear shoes and front pads, $15/set. Brake hoses $8/each. All 4 corners for the cost under 1 corner of the BMWs. LOL

 Such a cool car. Only driven one once, and it wasn't near as nice as that example.I've never had complaints about the cost of BMW brakes though. Barring M cars or M performance brake kits, I have yet to spend over $300 for all 4 corners.

It's the cooling system maintenance costs that are the real bargain OB

I got the new front suspension with narrowed beam and dropped 3" in and finally got the Fuchs 2 liter alloy wheels back from paint and mounted. It is starting to look like the cars I have had in my past. I have the engine and transmission in build right now so hopefully in a couple months, I will be making some serious manifold pressure on my way to get ice cream.  It's funny, I bought this car knowing it was worth more than both my BMW's combined but by the time this toy is done, I will have more money in it than I did in my Ferrari. Reliving my youth is priceless.
