    My daily commute just for work is 60 ish miles a day so that adds up quick too plus any side driving I do after work, Even with having 2 cars I have put a combined 20k on the car and truck in the last 12 months

    Those can be plenty fun. Turbo and a 5speed.

    Problem is finding one that is up on the maintenance because diesel stuff is pricey. And German.

    Same. I put in like what, $10-20 every 3 or 4 days. Helps me drive less. At least till I catch up on some mods and the supercharger.

    Looks like i need new lower control arm bushings. Should i just go ahead of do new lower arms? Anybody have any recommendations on what to get?

    One of my cv boots ripped as well, looks like it's way to late to re boot it
