Sometimes I take for granted what great little cars we have. I just finished replacing the spark plugs on my wife's '06 MPV. Serious PITA. You have to remove about 250 pieces of plastic, and then remove the front and rear intake plenums just to get at them. and the 3 on the rear of the engine are damn near impossible to pull without use of a well trained octopus.
A job that takes all of 15 minutes on a Miata took me about 5 hours and I had to donate about 2 oz of blood to the car gods.
But on a lighter note, I signed my final papers and as of tomorrow morning, I will no longer be a part of the military machine.

haha, that obey the moderator song is crazy. Apparently nerdcore hip hop is a musical genre! Nerdy hip-hop, now that's almost an oxymoron.
