7 hours with the orbital buffer and some wax= wow

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

the wife bought the 4runner used in feb and i was dreading the waxing since it is a petty big vehicle. so i woke up this morning and said "the hell with it"

the final coat of wax is Touch of Class from meguires. this stuff looks just as good as the other mequires stuff


btw does anyone know where i can find the center caps for these things, we lost one on the other side hitting an uneven road. yes i checked ebay and they don't have any on right now

Yeah...I'm still debating on what to do with mine...I am going to buy the supplies regardless but I'm not sure I'm going to have the time to do all that before class starts back up again...may just have to bite the bullet and take it to the body shop...

How does that work exactly? Come over the show me (on my truck) and I'll give you back your center cap....
