    I've got 85,000 on my 04 and the bearings are starting to wear out now. They've worn a slight groove in one area. I'm going to do the work myself though as the front end strip down is pretty easy, and I am very tight.
    Before modern times there was walking, but not the perfection of walking, because there was no tea.

    A heart stained in anger grows weak and grows bitter, you'll become your own prisoner as you watch yourself sit there wrapped up in a trap of your very own chain of sorrow.
