She stays in the garage... I take her out and BOOM!!! And this is why people in NoVA can't have anything nice...

PDR from a local company(I prefer local) said $130....

Unfortunately there is a scratch in the middle of the dent.. oh well... it's just a Taurus....

Is the scratch through the clear? I have a couple clearcoat scratches from the PO that I will be fixing this spring with some careful wet sanding and some rubbing compound.

It's totally through the clear coat...

First ding on this car... EVER...

Sucks man. I wish I had a picture from when my wife cut the wheel too hard after checking the mail in my F150 SCrew... LOL. I had a scratch down to primer from the center of the drivers door which carried to 75% the length of the bed. From that point forward, I didn't mind parking next to cart returns at the grocery store.

I'm hoping she got her "practice" out of the way. :P

Went to the local Ford dealer today to get her appraised. Got almost what I was looking for. Gonna see what I can get from another dealer who's offering 130% of KBB then take that back to the original dealer (looking at trading in for a 2017 Focus RS2 the dealer I want doesn't have any  >:(). Salesman couldn't stop gawking over her and told me how beautiful she was, especially for the miles. I might have turned a little red  :-[

I noticed one of my reverse backup lights were out and ordered a set of Phillips 6000k led bulbs from www.rockauto.com and overall great quality bulbs for 7.86 ea.
I found it ideal using a slight angle pliers along with a flat head to remove the six plastic fasteners with ease but you need to make sure there installed correctly. Z  :)

Normal.

You are short on all your WOT fuel targets.

Tune may be giving some more spark if it sees favorable conditions so its gonna push up to the knock limit.

Once the trims do their magic and you beat on it a bit it will be gone.

Lol, true... or I can just throw a couple gallons of 104 octane to fix it for now... which will throw my trims off... oh well...

No more KR though!

KR isn't always bad... your right.. but I'm maxing out the spark on my current tune.. so any KR is taking away my power...
