Default What did you do to your Pilot today?

I'm borrowing the idea for this tread from jeepforum.com. It's a fun thread where we all can make quick posts about the fun stuff we do to our Pilots.

I'll start: Picked up the Pilot from the detailing shop. We had a complete inside/outside detailing done, and our Pilot no longer looks five years old!

They even cleaned and treated the leather so all the dirt and shine is gone.

Just like new!

I put washer fluid in the reservoir. But engine is dirty as hell so that'll need to be cleaned at some point. But not today (sunday-- only day I get to rest).

Changed 3rd and 4th gear tranny pressure switches, oil change, inspected brake pads and pulled and lubed the caliper pins on the front. Not exactly fun, but I enjoyed it.

Then I went for a drive and got it all dirty as the temperatures are above 0 celcius for the first time in a long time. Everything is sloppy.

Since it was looking sunny, I did a complete detail. Towards the end, it started to get gloomy and I'm sitting there like "Well, it's not gonna last long". But I did complete inside and out, armorall interior, leather conditioner, rainx the exterior windows. I love my Pilot.

Filled it up at $3.99 a gallon here in San Diego. Then picked up some supplies for when Fukushima goes super nova and they tell us all to stay indoors and take our potassium iodide pills.
