Whenever I purchase a new (used) car I always go through it from top to bottom. I act as if I am headed to the track
and tech the car as such. I also do a bi-annual inspection (more depending on use and mileage) of the car with the same thoughts in mind. Even my daily driver (2K Expedition) gets checked constantly, whether it needs to be or not, it's my life and the life of my family that is always in my mind.
