Is it possible the power steering pulley could be seizing intermittently?

Both are obviously solid options. I can’t offer an honest unbiased opinion, I haven’t owned the GX, but I will get into one eventually. I love my LX but want to add a GX to the stable if you will You will be much more comfortable in the GX I can guarantee that

I don’t need yours 5100’s, but I’m in Carolina Beach and you can have my front stuff if you’re up this way and want to grab it

No, nope.

...if you’ve completely blanked for over a year on the fact that we have a storage cubby in the trunk/rear hatch? Quarantine has brought me a lot of...well...Irish whiskey and projects I always said I’d get to when I had time. That said, today I was organizing my storage drawers I built, and...
