I really doubt anybody needs the oil changed on their cars during a hurricane.
Mine does.

Those of us who have homes down in the taint of Tampa have to worry for a pretty good reason. No-namers flood shit out pretty badly south of Kennedy, so a hurricane is bound to do the same. One of my family members nearly lost their car, so we're always prepared down here.

Any one run solid subframe bushings? I was thinking about getting some and using gasket paper for a little bit of noise insolation, but im not sure if I can stand the noise. Unless there are some poly or something similar bushings out there.

No I dont want inserts, I already have them and they suck and are now completely loose.

Yeah thats understandable...my grandpa has lost a car and that was up in port richey, I just tend to jump to conclussions and think everyone else is just as well off as us, thankfully we have never had to evacuate and the river has never come close to our house

im curious about that also. i've heard people say there is a noticable noise dfference and others say there isnt any. i think it depends on how loud your car is to start with. since you have a lot of solid links you may not see much of a difference.

It's not appreciable. You're never going to get a Lexus-esque crypt-like silence in a 240.
