I've only got a few pics of the car so far - here's my favourite (after a little bit of off-roading to get to the campsite). I'll take some more when I install the CAI.

my rear window washer leaves HORRENDOUS UGLY STREAKS so i never use it. The dust catches all the streams of water and makes it look awfull. I wish it were a spray like the front windshield.

The DIY Cargo Mat And the new 12v socket. Which ran a lot more than I was expecting from "Genuine GM Accessories"

When I was there I don't recall there being a toll to get in (that was almost 10 years ago now, so it might have changed). Just a checkstop at the bottom to give you some 'tips' how to drive on it. When we drove back down there was a woman at the bottom who completely cooked her brakes. No pad's left whatsoever, and I'd be surprised if her callipers weren't seized. Normally I wouldn't laugh because a person didn't know to downshift instead of ride the brakes, but there's signs about every 50 feet warning you to use your transmission to slow down.

I wish it were a spray like the front windshield.The rear wiper does have a spay washer like the front. The control is on the end of the wiper stalk. I think you turn the end all the way toward you to make it spray. May take you some experimenting to figure it out.

Whooooooooo! CAI is installed!

I shouldn't have done this. The cargo mat and 12v socket were just interior jobs. But now with some extra performance? I'm hooked. The AWD with the CAI. (Yes, the engine bay is dirty. It's been raining/snowing here all month so I haven't taken it down to the car wash.)
