That kind of bonding experience with your new car ranks right up there with the first time you kissed your girlfriend...almost!

second that!

Had my grill tinted, fogs tinted yellow, and tail lights tinted over the weekend. Thinking about replacing the interior lights with LED's... any color suggestions?

SMD 31 mm Festoons. White. 16 led's for the dome, 12's for the map lights, & 4's for the visors. It'll look fantastic...but I'm prejudiced. That's how I did Ingrid and she gets rave reviews by friends and co-workers.

I have two strips of 12 blue LED's I plan on installing under the dash on each side...tie them in to the interior light circuit. Just too lazy right now.

I have a lot of dreams about driving, but usually they involve wrecking...

Kind of embarrassed to admit this, but it's actually genetic and is passed down to me, so here goes: I suffer from night terrors, where I usually sound extremely afraid and panicked, and sometimes even end up hitting or punching my poor husband by complete accident, and unknowingly at that.

Last night I dreamt that I was driving my Leaf and couldn't stop in time before hitting a curb and scraping the underside of my car.

I wasn't aware, but apparently I also hit my husband in the face while dreaming this. His poor jaw hurts now. I feel TERRIBLE but there is literally nothing I can do to control it. Except for a straitjacket, perhaps.

You WOULD say this. You and anyone who agrees with you is just insane, and deserves to be on one of those TLC shows about crazy people.

Ok, after what I just wrote above, I suppose I should be on one of those shows, too!

I had a very full, interesting day, but I don't want to clog up this thread with non-Elantra stuff, so don't forget to check out my Leaf thread.

My wife used to have nightmares every night but last year a friend of ours who is a therapist treated her and she's never had a nightmare ever since.

Well, if I had a choice of appearing as a guest on one of those shows, I'd choose "Duck Dynasty." I can't imagine anything more memorable than hanging around with a family of eccentric millionaires whose ultimate goal in life is to "just have some good clean fun."

Took off about a quarter of the tank.

On the way home coming down a winding downhill road 'she' came face to face with a 20lb raccoon staring blind into 'her' face. I gently manouvered 'her' to the right without too much effort and looked down the side mirror seeing the little guy walk away without a scratch.

Then today I expolited 'her' in a photoshoot, exposed 'her' on facebook.

Bought her some winter mats, usb cables, almost invisible usb charger, aux cable and a window mounted phone holder. I also had my first fill up on 40 litres.

It started snowing and the roads are already wet and salty. I bought a soft snow brush and 3 microfibre cloths to rub 'her' down when needed.

First 24 hours went wonderful.

This is what you call car porn. If I smoked, I'd totally need a cigarette.
