Bout to turn 132K on my 08 LX. It has principally served to haul RC competition aircraft plus equipment locally and cross country. The middle row and rear seats have been used a ~dozen times over the last 16 years. Besides being a reliable, low-maintenance motor vehicle it's comfortable and a pleasure to drive. Acceleration and handling are surprising. Only a few plane haulers achieve 25+mpg highway miles at 70mph loaded with equipment.

BJ Craft Anthem ARC_paint part 2
Over the last couple of weeks, SE Texas temperature has been fluctuating from the high 50s to mid 60s. This has slowed down the painting process of the Anthem. I've had to pick my days when temps were 60+ to shoot colors. On like paints used in the past Wings West RC paint has performed flawlessly in these cooler temps. Next is clearcoat. Looking forward to seeing the color layout on the wings and stabs paired with the fuse. Pretty basic but should be very visible in most sky conditions which is the ultimate goal.
