Welcome. My dad was born in MN..... The mosquitos get to be hummingbird size up there, and the lakes are beautiful.

Maybe your mileage will go up once the car is broken in too.

Yeah, we have to lump the Plains States Members together for a solid group (although a bit geographically spread-out)

Nebraska, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma!

It will be fun to see what you Focus can do. I have always liked them.

Daaaang! Thanks All for the warm Welcome !

I'm doing quite a bit of reading here and yes there are a few things that will really help out . I've read about the Scan Gauge many times - they are very well regarded . Another doo-dad to add to my ever growing list of must haves . I'll be getting a pic or two rounded up and will fill my garage this week sometime (mine is an SE - as an allergy sufferer I *have* to have A/C no ands/ifs/buts about that .)

Welcome, mini soda man ! Heh, Heh, thats kinda cute!
I have Allergies too, But I don't use AC, but then I like to suffer. Sometimes I sneeze so hard I turn the steering wheel and almost go off the road.

Ha! Been in a few sneezing fits already ! I'm almost postive I could be pulled over for driving under the influence *Ah-choooo!* Weave right*AhhhhChoo!* Weave left /right* choo choo!!!! Driving 55 or less & weaving shoulder to shoulder has to look a might bit suspicious . I'd pull *me* over for sure Ha!!
