Recently my fuel economy has risen dramatically due to 54 psi in my new Michelin LTX M/S2 in size 275/65x18 E range: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Michelin&tireModel=LTX+M/S2
They are really sweet and they remind me of the very nice all-around Michelin XPC that used to come on the Discovery 1 and 2 for many years.
Today I installed a new AGM Odessey 1350 which has CCA 770 and 95Ah as compared to the factory lead acid battery CCA 700 and 70 Ah. It was still fine and never gave me trouble but at 7 years old and some camping this summer with Canada boondocking next winter, it seemed like a good time to change it out. The 1350 is slightly longer but fit just fine, easy really.
Today also brought installation of the LLAMS height control unit which is an interesting combination with the Britpart IIDtool.
Lastly I got some Staun Tire/air deflators which are pretty sweet for quick and methodical preset psi.
Last week I removed the 3rd row seats which weigh 92 LBS. It's a welcomed reduction above and behind the rear axle.
The new powdercoating for the wheels will be much easier to keep clean and won't look too bad fully dirty either.
