Since returning to Austin, I haven’t driven the Xterra even once. I would feel bad about that, but Xterra the Younger is fixin’ to drive to California over the next four nights, so I felt he deserved a rest after dragging his elder back from hospital. Which is to say — I’ve put about 120 miles on the truck in the past week or so!
Last night, I had dinner with the folks and they wanted to see some of our tinkering. I popped the hood and was pleased to see that coolant, clutch, and brake fluid levels were all exactly where I left them back in Tulsa! That means we successfully resolved the leaks.
I also received a piece of mail that had been waiting for me:
So now I have team shirts and Matchbox cars for both! The other thing waiting for me at mail call was a package of vents/vent covers to start making the dashboard look a bit more civilized. Looks like I’ve got a December project!
