The Evo really isn't bad for a long drive... except for not having cruise control and getting a misfire code every 5 minutes.

They were fine for my 20 or so hours to Florida and back.

And I didn't hear Yeti complaining either after his trip.

Yeah, seats are ok for the long drive, luckily my bro and dad can drive some of the trip if I feel like taking in the scenery.

That won't work, I don't have jack stands or anything to get the car off the ground. I'll guess I'll wait until the lift is free. Do you know when it will be?

I have to be honest, i never used a jack to change my oil, i just reach and drain. one of the easiest cars ive ever owned to change. you must be very low to the ground or somthing.
