Catch Can Results

Still skeptical about the performance on a catch can? Here is what mine accumulated from just before Spring Festival until today, only have driven about 1,800 miles. The first picture is of the substance in the can itself, the seconed is to show the ammount of crap captured, and the last is the build up of really nasty stuff in the bottom of the can from over the last year +.

New Product Review - Turtle Ice Detail Micro Fiber Clothes


Well, if you detail and maintain your car yourself, you know how important micro fiber is. If you are like me, you have used dozens of different brands and sizes looking for the ones that work best. I found these Turtle Wax TW45203 ICE Microfiber MAX Detailing Cloth - Pack of 2
when I went to get another micro fiber drying towel, but they were sold out. I saw these new towels (advertised for wash/drying/detailing)and they were super soft so I figured I would pick a pair up.

I used the first one to get what the larger Microfiber towel had left behind while drying, and I was impressed. I pretty much dried 3/4 of my car with it and it did not leave streaks of water behind. I then grabbed the second one, and went to work with some detail stray in problem areas and door jams and such, they worked very well. They measure about 12" x 12", and work very well, I highly recommend these.

Sweet, There Will Still Be a Chrysler Tomorrow...

You can take that headline figuratively and literally. I am not going to try and follow every single Chrysler/Fiat development, as there is just WAY too much going on. Here is a Link to the newest story. And yes, it really has been less than 2 hours since the last breaking news story. Maybe the media needs to be diverted from the economy with any other type of news story.

Chrysler Bankruptcy?

Looks more and more likely everyday now. I was convinced today, when the CEO of Fiat said if he was a betting man, he would say they would in Chapter 11. I am not going to sit here and beat the viability horse to death, so here is a link to an AP story about it. Its about 11 minutes old as of my post.
