I changed the ride height and sway bar settings. Initially I raised the car up, but I brought it back down. I have come to the conclusion that my alignment is all fucked up and really needs to be done soon.

Went out and replaced the front O2 sensor that has been needing it for awhile. Took it for about a 700 mile round trip. The difference in mileage is amazing, and it's idling insanely better.

OEM. I'm going to be getting a wideband soon enough though. I've got a DIYPnP from Brain and Reverent that requires one. But I wanted better mileage for the drive anyway.

I finally got my stupid wheel locks off. I ended up losing the key last weekend, and now...no need to worry about that ----. I also fixed my VC gasket leak (although its sure to come back this weekend, when I work on the car again).

Filled it up this morning, averaged 25.36 MPG last tank on the daily commute. Washed it this evening and cleaned the interior glass.

Mine took a trip to the bodyshop...and it didn't drive me home. There is a strange blue Prius occupying a spot in my driveway.
