Washed it, parked it in the garage for an hour after drying it, then taped off all of the roof rails and rubber inserts and put on the PermaPlate Paintgaurd Renewer with the applicator sponge deal Bascom Trim gave me. Waited about 35mins and went out and wiped it all off.
Figure I got it might as well go ahead and start to use it.
SMOOOTTTHHHH.
No pics. We all have seen Wax-On Wax-Off.

Drove it home from SLO, it definitely gets better gas mileage than the legacy even with an E85 mix tank.
Drove mine up to my grandparents cabin near Yosemite and got trash gas mileage on the way home because some dude decided to roll his ford exploder on i5 closing both sides for about 45 minutes.

Installed my Blackvue DR500 behind the mirror, not perfectly centered but close enough to capture most of the crazy-*** driving we get a little too much of at times.

Went out to Bonneville this morning after driving all the way out to Utah yesterday. Turns out it had rained out there recently so the salt flats were wet. I didn't get to do all of the stuff that I was hoping to be able to do. However, as I had driven 600 miles to get to the salt flats, there was no freaking way in hell I wasn't going to go out onto the salt.
Ended up getting 27.6 mpg from the last fill-up at Boomtown to Hercules, some 190 miles away or so. Not too bad...
Here's a pic - it's not too visible given the size, but my entire car was coated with a layer of salt...
