Jersey roads suck no matter what the weather. If the weather is beautiful, there's construction. When it snows the plow drivers will do my street and surrounding roads sometimes as much as 5 times...not because there's that much snow, but because they get overtime. I've witnessed them plow my street when it was practically dry. That does wonders for the pavement.

And if it rains, the potholes that they didn't fix when the weather was nice will fill up with road junk and some foul toxic stew run-off whose color description can't be described in any human language....perhaps there's an equivalent on another another planet, but it's not in our spectrum here.

And don't get me started on salted roads. I wish we'd use cinders here like some states do.

Touched up the front end

Had a large rock chip on the front racing stripe. Filled it in with matching paint. Once dried placed a Ford Racing Decal over it.

Thanks, it worked out well. Would prefer not to go the decal route but the repaired chip still looked nasty.

Just purchased online - high temp paint to paint the valve covers and maybe the engine block too - pink, of course to match the pink accents everywhere else on my black stang.

That's all I've been doing too, for about a week and a half now, since I put it in the new-to-me garage ...

Love driving the Tundra, so at least that takes some of the sting out of it.
And I still have a V8 to flog, so that helps too
