Don’t want cash. 1 can get robbed, 2 can’t deposit into bank account as I don’t have any usaa branches in Ohio.
Mobile deposit is the only way for me to drop checks into bank. My friends and me use Apple Pay for all money transfers.

I hate and won’t carry physical cash. Ive had wallet jacked too many times, so I avoid green money like the plague

edit, also, do gas stations seriously cash 10k checks? Blows my mind if true.

Most credit unions do shared branch banking with each other's customers. I don't have a local branch either, but have no problem getting cash, cashiers checks, etc. I actually once got a $30k cashiers check from a different credit union, no questions asked. Well...they did ask for my ID :crackup:
They asked for a ID because you wasn't there to vote

In 2016 you could add a Premier Interior option to Premium models. That was mostly real stitching but also soft touch doors and better leather. Currently, that isn't a separate option but part of a new trim level and includes even more real stitching and soft touch.

So to have more real stitching and padding I bought the panels from the new trim level a while ago and finally got around to installing.

Original red stitching in the car (and GT350R steering wheel added on day of delivery):

Old hard plastic and new wrapped, stitched and padded panels:

Changed the transmission fluid to Motul DCTF. What a big difference! no more 3rd gear nibble when transmission is cold; and shifting is much smoother. I also wrapped the exhaust where it goes by the differential. Hopefully that will give a few more laps before the overheat warning pops up.

No motul 660 brake fluid?? Do our cars require 3L for transmission fluid?

We used my recently acquired Stop-n-Go plug-based kit which has a design error that I will be bringing to the manufacturer's attention. And @EmCel helped with getting lug nuts on/off. We had to borrow a 1400ft/lb handheld Milwaukee impact wrench to get the rear lugs off. I didn't have a cheater for the breaker bar and all 250+lb of me standing on the end didn't even budge.

A couple more pics of the final result. Long-time members will recognize the rims that previously adorned my N4G Ecoboost.

And of course I had to make sure the tires gripped properly and went for a 3hr drive around the back-country roads in the area. They are 265/40 PIrelli COrsa w/ 80 rating supposedly but I seriously question the veracity of that.

600 will be coming soon. 2.7, but a bunch leaked past the pump seals so there wasn't much left
