    lol, I know what you mean. If it does it again, lightly grease (lithium) the gears behind the dash cluster and spray a really light lubricant ( I used electrical contact cleaner) on the speedo flywheel thingy. The plastic gears is was what was actually making the noise on mine.

    yeah I actually did that, didn't realize how loud the speedometer was until afterwards when it was quiet. All is well for now, hopefully no more noise for a long while

    If any of you need anything from radio shack, nows the time to do it. I guess they are going through some kind of bankruptcy and long story short they're having super sales on some of their items. I got a second dash cam for half off $40 vs $80 and we scored a nice emergency radio (solar, phone charger, radio, weather alerts, you name it) was $60 and we got it for $9.

    Sean. Just curious. Did that noise ever come back? Hopefully it's gone for good.

    I think so. The guy was saying something along the lines of all their product lines and their ability to sell them are going up for auction. So if say for example, they lose the right to sell a particular product, they have to immediately pull it off the shelves so they'll lose money. They're trying to get rid of the possible products they might lose quickly so they can at least make something.

    That's what they said. But I didn't know about it. I just went in knowing about Memorial Day sales.

    Comedy of errors on 66 today. Guy in Altima falls off road during blinding downpour into soupy mud with a slight downward slope. I pull over to help, end up sliding down the hill myself. Guy in a Ranger attempts to pull over, we shout at him to stay on pavement, I use him as an anchor point to winch out. Then we winch out the Altima while a friendly Weld Co Sheriff keep the traffic away.

    Moral of the story, I need 35" mud terrains.

    Not sure. He wasn't near me to see his name tag and for the most part I was paying more attention to his instructions and traffic. When all was said and done we exchanged quick thank you and headed out right away to not impede traffic any more than it needed to be.
