Looks nice. The black hood doesn't look too bad actually. You should get over 20 miles/gal...if you can stay out of the boost.

Is there a recommended amount of time I should be driving this vehicle while on the road? Like 4 hours at a time? I want to get this car back to the states, but I don't want to have it break down in the process. I will be going to my insurance place and getting things arranged for pick up, then go down to the bank (for some reason they wouldn't allow me to buy a plane ticket and even though I made a payment last week, it hasn't knocked off the balance I put on it O_O

In the mean time I am going to print up a little checklist on the Stealth, on what to look for, what would need fixing (other than the cigarette lighter and check engine light), and what I need to do before handing the guy 6k.

I would say just drive it. Keep an eye on the vitals and go like hell. Check the fluids at rest stops and such, and maybe have some extra oil, and a water jug just in case. Your trip won't be taking you through KC will it?

Ew.....the route I was originally taking was a total of 1800 miles, going through Albequrque. The route going through Denver and Salt Lake City all the way to Topeka is an extra 200, that means going all the way to where you live would be 450 miles total extra traveled.

Maybe once I get the vehicle in running condition that I feel is acceptable, I will take a road trip up there and you and I can meet up.
