That's awesome! I wonder what he did to upgrade his AWD system. Good for him. I hope everything is running good...?

That would be fun. MWR is only an hour or less from my house I think so I wouldn't have to pay for shipping. And all the installs could be done in my school's auto shop, since I'm taking auto classes there anyway. But at 105,000 miles, I have to start thinking... is it worth it anymore?
