Yea I learned that in the past 7 weeks since I owned mine. This past week is the first time I've spent more hours driving it than working on it. Eventually all the bugs get worked out and the scale tips in the direction of more quality time driving than time spent wrenching. The scale here should be tipping in the quality per hours spent driving this week with mine finally, took long enough.

Only problem I had today was I pulled the fender lip out again backing in w/ wheels turned so not that bad of a day.
