What did you do to your GE fit today?
Some people are going to say not to tow anything, but like I mentioned I've been towing with my Fit for a little while now along with many others. My opinion is that this little car can handle up to towing a 1,000lb load without too much trouble. I've towed that much on a 4x8 utility trailer and it felt about the same as having a car load of people. Some of the guys here have towed much more than that. For reference the Fit/Jazz in Europe is rated to tow about 1,000lbs without trailer brakes and 2,000lbs with. The Jazz rear suspension over there is a little stiffer, but I wouldn't think that would matter much as long as you properly balance the trailer.

meh curbed one of my wheels today boohoo
on the other hand, replaced my cabin filter today and put a dryer sheet behind it to freshen up the car. also replaced the usb cables on my phone dock so my S5 will start charging again.

Perhaps a boring choice, but 1) I like the 1st Gen-3rd Gen mashup (with everything still OEM) and 2) the shiny blue dot makes me happy.

If it works for you then by all means use it I don't mind spending the extra for this gauge since this will last me forever
Huh, strange. Been using them for a couple years now. When I first bought it I would check it against other gauges that friends had, and any other one I got my hands on. It always matched up perfectly. And when I ask tire shops to put a specific PSI in my tires I always double check and it's spot on.
I think the more important aspect would be consistency... as most people will adjust the pressure based on the ride feel/handling, not a gauge readout.
I've bought two gauge/chucks for my compressor and honestly, never cared whether either was accurate... so long as I stick to one for all four wheels and when doing adjustment comparisons.
Vancouver FitFreak isn't on here as often as we were during the hey-day of the GD3s. but we represented (proudly) at Revscene Summer Meetup over the weekend! after the meetup 3 of us went to do a photoshoot. here's a sample of the goods!

Are you sure it isn't the Moroso that's off?

Good review for different gauges:

Hey Fit Freaksters...It's been a while!!!
I've done some more modifications to my FIT (who recently turned 2 yrs)...enjoy!!
What do you guys/gals think? Love it/Hate it?
Got the Sport Grill...It was an easy install...
Got some rims and tires (finally)
I decided to go with OEM rims... I don't care much for the HFP rims made for my generation of FIT. I just think they look hideous. I dialed back a generation and loved the color and overall look of the previous gen HFP rims in bronze. The TPMS work great. Some Honda dealerships will try to discourage them, because these rims were pre-TPMS FIT era. I assure you though, they work flawlessly. The tires are nothing fancy either (16' Potenza Bridgestone tires). I think everything has a good flow to it. My approach to modding has always been: simple, clean and tasteful. I believe those principles were upheld (LOL).
(Quick Clean/Detail once I got home)
Thank you for viewing!
(PS: Anyone know a good radio replacement with a touchscreen and video inputs [hdmi or rca] as well as, Bluetooth? I just wanted to know what some experiences users recommend around here. Thanks again!!)
