luckily the only problem i've had with my car is the rims its hard to explain but because i live directly next to the ocean the salt in the air has corroded what appears to be a small coating over the rims giving them a sunburnt skin look, where its chafing off all over the place they're not cheap plastic stuff like you buy at walmart either they're real wheels so i dont know what to do |
| Pie Crust:
You should coat it with protective transparent paint bimonthly. If done correctly, it should be alright. I heard that's what some people do in Key West. |

Those electric windows break easily. Especially in mud and constant rain. --- End quote --- I don't use the auto windows anymore because when they hit the bottom I can hear a THUMP noise. I just decide where I want my windows instead of letting them go by themselves. |
