So, now that the 25th has come and gone... (almost) I will ask if anyone recieved any cool gadgets.

I'll start by saying I got some pretty cool stuff... I guess that happens when you're in your teens, with a vehicle you obsess about.

ACDelco Portable Power Center with Inverter (Freakin cool! 260PSI air compressor! Sweeet! Now I can air my tires down out in the bush) :D

68 piece car survival kit (Parents want their kids to be safe) :)

Vent mounted cup holder (Minus one project for this winter B) )

Inside/Outside thermometer/clock

Sunvisor CD case

 

So yeah, anyone else get cool little gadgets for their Pathy?

But on the upside as soon as the post-xmas crowds thin out I'm going to go pick up an air compressor with all the sears gift cards I got :aok:

Yowza. Yeah, I was one of the guys that got them for like $130 shipped, although I ended up having to get a 2nd shipment for $10 more with the bushing. Why would a guy actually want the bushings or want to install the UCA's anyways??? -thnkboutit- Oh, and I'm in western Washington vs. Cali, although I'm from San Diego and can be found there often. Anyways, all in all, they are great and that should still be a decent price, and they are pretty straight forward to install.

 

Oh, and as for gifts... lots of fun stuff, but nothing for the truck. My bday was only 3 weeks ago, and I scored a locker (actually a "honey, can I buy this for my birthday? :) ) and she got me an air compressor. Soon though...

Oh boy I got a bunch of cool stuff.

For the pathfinder I got a 151 peice mechanics tool set, some metric wrenchs to supplement those supplied in the kit, and a promise of more standard size wrenches once they're in stock. I also got a tire for my spare (a nice Dunlop AT not the AT revo though).

Not for the pathy but also cool: Gran Turismo 4, iPod nano, pants shirts jacket, DVDs: Kill Bill Vols 1 and 2, Sin City, and Devils Regects. CD's: Flogging Molly "Drunken Lullabies", Op. Ivy, and Superjoint Ritual "A lethal dose of american hatred".

And as a gift to myself and the whole family fast internet! WOOHOO!

 

nissandoms, Reverse going out is usually fatal for the pathfinder transmission. There is a chance that it just needs a really good tran fluid purge and change, but unlikely. Its more likely that your transmission needs to be rebuilt or replaced. Take it to your local auto tranny shop and see what they tell you they will be able to tell better than us. Sorry about you losing reverse! :sniff:
