Can't make Cincy



I have VERY stubborn washers on the 87 (the 85 is no condition to make it) 
so I am seriously considering bringing up the R32 instead. I am going to 
Rain-X the windshield and try what Daun told me about cleaning out the 
grooves on the shaft.
 Grrr. Not to mention I have a small leak in the 87 (funny story about that 
and remote start) The I-64 corridor appears to have the weather channel's 
equivelent of a train wreck.
 Grrr. I may just back out altogether. Shit shit shit.
