well finally got my car home in the garage!
drove it home from the dealer yesterday after getting all the work done on it that they wanted to dig into

i got the cooling fans working yesterday, got the control module for the blinkers and hazards out, put in the amp and got the speakers working.
still a few small things to get working but it is already great having it home knowing i can drive it once i get the ac going and windows fixed so it isnt so unbearable hot on the inside.

Nice V! Too bad you keep it in your "compound"...

j/k I was actually surprised how big Sioux Falls is and has some normal people living there. Don't mind me, it's just my east coast superiority complex talking...

Yeah, I think the East Coast complex comes from having to pay so much so we feel entitled to yap a lot.

Was on a cross-country trip in '04 in the V and strolled through Sioux Falls on our way.

now if i can just figure out why the ac fan is stuck on high and get that fixed and the windows to roll down it would be decent to drive around.

the cooling fans i got working yesterday. working on some other stuff right now to try to iron related issues out.
