Washed out my mats and cleaned the interior a bit which had a bunch of Utah red mud in it. Took out my old CB that's not working right, re attached one of my window rain guards that had fallen off and checked all the fluids. I gotta do an oil change and front brakes soon. Tomorrow its time for some wheelin!
