Since we've been asking about folks activities with their crooked-H wearing rides, why not ask about their brethren?

As for me, today I put new front rotors and pads on the wife's Rio. Passenger side went pretty smoothly, but I had to buy an impact driver to get the screws out of the rotor on the driver's side. Might be the easiest parts of the car to work on. After I got done, took it for a test drive (stops FANTASTIC now) and bumped up the tire pressures. Really need to get a set of alloys for that car.
