C5 allroad

24 hours and 1700 miles of driving from Chicago to Flagstaff this weekend. Worth it though. Beautiful drive through Colorado, Utah and Arizona. Hell, even Iowa and Nebraska weren’t that bad. Funny how a new car makes everything better. Suprised my folks with a pop in visit (Mom cried a little).

Picked it up

A well deserved cleaning. Raised to level 4 to get a good wheel well/undercarriage spray down.

Bottom line is I am glad I made the switch. I will miss the imolas power but this is a pretty damn versatile and comfortable ride. I do like the 4.2 exhaust note. Plans to upgrade exhaust, JHM tcu/ecu tunes, sway bars, wheels/tires, and come spring, nitrous 8). Should be a fun new project.

First thing though, what is the go to spark plug for these 4.2’s. Thanks.
