lol no kidding. I'm pretty happy with how it's doing on gas though I normally would be starting to drive the 110 now which only gets about 12 mpg on my commute and isn't nearly as warm inside. So really it's a huge improvement.

Forgot to add yesterday the HID kit showed up, and I pulled it all apart to install. Only to find the kit when opened was obviously returned and was defective to boot. So all the effort was for nothing. It is however really easy to pull apart the front of the Discovery.

Well time for a quick update the Disco is doing great and has been doing the daily driver duties for the entire time since I picked it up.

On the hunt for some 18" AT tires or some 16 rims with AT's on them

Too bad you don't have 16" wheels. I have a spare you could have.

I wish I had 16's the search for tires would be so much quicker and easier. I've only seen 1 set of 16's for sale locally and the guy wants crazy money for them. The part that kills me is I have a set of RRC rims with AT's on them but I can't use them because the bolt pattern is wrong lol.

I appreciate the thought though Jafir
