Re: It's been fun

The Kizzy did a good job of protecting me. I was belted in and my head restraint was in its proper position, so i am sure that helped. I was able to drive away after the accident. The girl who hit me had to be towed(Elantra). The Kizzy didn't look too badly damaged, but the damage she caused was str...

Re: Rusty Lug Nuts

I have had the ones on my SX4 replaced twice under warranty, no problem. Very common issue with the SX4.

Re: Kizashi gaz Mileage(only AWD please) with a Full gaz tan

I've tried many times to drive gently and reach 400 miles but I can never get it there. You guys must have no hills around you. I live north of Pittsburgh. Plenty of hills here, including my driveway. One key to maximizing mileage with hills is to NOT try to maintain full speed all the way up the h...
