Your car looks like it's in a food coma and has a nice big fat smile on it's face.

I thought is was just a damaged picture when I saw it.

I like my 3M bra, a little bit of WD40 and the bugs come right off no damage done.

I would never let squashed bugs stay stuck to my precious 7 for two weeks.lol
Those bugs were killed during a trip between Spokane and Kennewick which coincidently is just over two hours.

He's in Florida. We know they can't count down there!
And if he gets it wrong and we ask him to count them again, he'll just start complaining about his dangling things...
