Crashy is sooo ready, that I don't think we will get any snow this year. I even installed a seat heater in her drivers seat. I was off most of Thanksgiving week and had some serious play time with my lift getting all three vehicles ready for winter. Crashy got new brake rotors (drilled and slotted), calipers, and pads and fluid (she had a bent caliper that was a bit annoying scraping wise, and her rotors were incredibly rusty-flakey thanks to spending so much time sitting in a swampy area before I bought her.

She also got an oil change with synthetic oil. She only had 3 miles on her existing oil, but it was a year old, so I figured with how much she plowed last year, she deserved fresh.

I also drained, flushed, and replaced her coolant, since the prior owner had put some green fluid in her.

Finally, I remounted her dash top to get back my coffee mug holder.

I am looking into getting (or welding up) a flat bed car trailer so she can do some traveling. A friend of mine bought a place in Vermont that has about 100 acres of snowy fields that would make for some serious Crashy fun.
