whittecar95

Adding my $0.02. I'm in North Seattle. All stock with all weather tires until summer. However, a winch is in the near future. Tires are in line for summer. Willing to go!

Greetings, My name is Jason Whittecar (pronounced like whittaker). It all started with a 1988 Nissan Hardbody. It took a lickin' and kept on tickin'. But, I needed A/C, so I moved to a 1988 Pathfinder SE-V6 and took it from 111,000 to 211,000 miles and from Iowa to Florida to Washington. It also took a beating and kept on going. After "the incident"*, it was deemed "unsafe" by The Better 3/4 and was quickly sold. The latest member of the family is a 1995 Pathfinder SE-V6, cobalt emerald green, heated leather, 5-speed, K&N filter, Optima battery. In the last 4 years, I've added a 135 amp Wrangler Northwest Power Products alternator; remote oil filter kit; Doug Thorley headers w/ stainless exhaust; Powerslot slotted brake rotors and a full size spare w/ alloy rim... for now. In debate is "What's next?" Thanks! Jason Whittecar *The Incident: Being from Iowa, the 88 was fighting a losing battle with the rust bunnies. Also from Iowa, I had some big rubber floormats in it to hold all the snow/water/mud. Therefore I did not notice that there was a hole in the floor, under the gas pedal, right above the exhaust pipe... on which the carpet was sitting. Needless to say, acrid white smoke filled the cab on the way to work one morning. Having found the source and living in Seattle, I doused the smoldering carpet with a latte, thus sparing my 2 fire extinguishers for another day. Some aluminum shingles and some screws made a nice, new floor, but The Better 3/4 spoke... and Ol' Red was sold. I like to think it was part of the Master Plan anyway. I'm making my dreams come true with the 95.
