Be the geek and improve the you: the Garage Hour is here to help (everybody, apparently)... The lovely Pam called needing info on detailing a dashboard and cleaning seat fabric, so the Gearhead Consultancy went to town with everything from car care on the Front Range to the beauty of factory headlight plastic - it's all about the sincerity of your detail.  With our old buddy Craig and special appearances from a $500 Civic, a hampster's Kia, a wrecked 4Runner, a very fine Legacy, a V-6 Accord, and a cherished STi, this episode's on track like a Big Boy.  Now, will someone tell us how to clean soap?

Don't stop, go: Gruntruk, Toadies, Jane's, Butthole Surfers, Monolord, Low Rider, Coldcut and "Ugly Americans"... We cap it all off with a tale of how not to be a menace in the Bronx while leaving your Audi at a block party in the 'hood.

Don't let the compunannies and digidistractions make you less of a (hu)man - it's time to think before you sink (into the mud and unpacked dirt at that job site, Mr. Cement Truck Driver)... It's an episode full of whatever got in the Gearhead Consultancy's way, because we're too damn busy.  How about cops and their Exploders?  Good and bad strap technique for fun and disastrous truck towing and hauling?  Why that little light in your sideview mirror should warn motorists about YOU... ...And why turning across lanes to avoid one driver is a recipe for meeting other drivers the hard way.  So much good stuff...

What about some thinly veiled leftism hiding in new limp-wristed podcasts?  Some Amon Tobin and traffic school?  ...Also, let's remember Scott Bloomquist, incredible dirt-track racer but not so much of a pilot.  R.I.P., you excellent weirdo.
