yah, sounds like everyone has been busy lately. guess cold weather brings nothing to do but piddle in the garage w/ car parts... 
Umm, I got my exhaust done at this podunk place in Blanchard. It's an old guy that's been doing exhaust setups forever and he's pretty reasonable and at least he knows what he's doing.
Yeah, umm i'm having massive issues w/ rubbing on the wheel liner now in the front and the rear. With each day that passes and as the susp settles more, it's a not so nice sound when you encounter rough roads. I don't want to know what it'll be like w/ ppl in the back seat...   for sure I'm going to have to roll the fenders if I will be having passengers in the back on a reg basis. The wheel sticks out just enough that it will catch the fender if there is enough weight in the rear.
My zetec loves this cold weather, specially' when it's realllllllllly cold out... damn, gotta love that cai...

I haven't actually "done" anything yet, but I've been gathering up parts for my 60K service. So far I've got plugs (no wires yet), fuel filter, pcv valve, some Sea Foam to clean the intake. I've got a metal-impeller water pump on order and I'll flush the radiator when I do that. Just hope I can find time to do all this stuff.
