Hey All, just wanted to drop in and say "Hi." I hope everyone is doing well, and that their LS' are running good. I still have mine, and still love driving it - even though it's starting to need a little more attention than what I have been able to give to it. In the last couple years, I've had to replace the power steering pump twice (had to pay dealer as I had no time to do that one myself) and a front wheel bearing (did manage to do that one myself). Last week, the heater control valve decided to start leaking, so that and the 3 lines got replaced.
Here's the list of what needs to be done to get the car up to snuff:
The challenge will be trying to find time between full-time work, full-time school, family schedule, and a new baby in the stable - a 2013 Harley-Davidson CVO Road King that is getting some upgrades/mods. One way or another, I'll get the list done - probably will burn some vacation time to make it happen.
I'll try to do a better job of staying current and active on the forum. I'll make it a point to try and check/post once a week (actually once a month would be a huge improvement over what I've done the last few years). Anyways, I hope all of you that still remember me are doing great with your cars and your lives - I hope to talk to you soon.

Here's the list of what needs to be done to get the car up to snuff:
- Fix broken Traction Control button mount
- Repaint front and back bumpers due to road chips on front and chip from garage door mishap on back
- Apply new coating of G2 caliper paint to fix chips from previous application
- Correct and polish headlight assemblies to remove slight haze and deteriorating coating at the top
- Replace power steering hose from reservoir to pump due to slight leak at fitting
- Order and install LED lights for interior/exterior bulbs
- Order and install Magnaflow cat-back exhaust system
- Order new wheels/tires to replace stock wheels for winter season
- Perform paint correction to remove slight scratches and microswirls (should have done this last year)
- Clean cold air intake filter and detail engine (needs it badly)
- Replace filters in seats
- Fix issue with driver seat heater intermittently shutting off
