Record times in your SVX

So far I can...

... change 2 tires from 2 different SVX and swap them using the OEM jack in 15 minutes(2 tires and a spare actually).

... pull out the CD cage and remove the CD/Tape deck under 5 minutes.

... pull out the center console in another 5 minutes

... switch from Deg F to Deg C in 10 seconds

... yank out the waterfall/97 grill in 10 seconds

what more can I do? I am bored...

Without breaking the clips? I don't think so.

Unless yours are already broken....... then, yeah.

Time yourself on a 5-speed swap and an auto swap, compare the two times then report back!

Without breaking clips.... I have done that more than enough times that it becomes second nature. On 97, there are 4 clips, other ones only have 2 clips. 2 clips are quicker.

Nick, that's pretty good time. I once drove from Normal IL to Chicago in about one and half hours. Average to about 100mph I think. With I 55 full of cops, I think I call that lucky

I didn't stop for anything, Mitch. I did exit the freeway only once, because I blew by a cop while doing 80 in a 65, and I had a hunch he wasn't going to let me get away with it. I took the next exit, waited a bit, and saw him go by pretty quickly. Whew.

I've done trips much faster. In VT I used to drive between Burlington and Manchester, NH with the cruise set at about 110. There was just nobody around in the early morning.

I don't do that any more. I'm lucky I wasn't arrested.

I am a pessimistic optimistic. I think the worst is going to happen, that way when it does, i don't feel as bad, but if the best happens, i am twice as happy.
