Default Hi from Jupiter

Hey, new CR-Z owner here in S. Florida.

Got my Z last weekend. It's replacing a Wrangler I've had for a while. I cried a little when I gave up the keys, but after having the Z for a few days, I'm not so sad anymore. Plus, I'm loving going from 13mpg to about 40.

Quick question for anyone else in FL: Love bugs. What do you all do for them? They're only bad for a couple of weeks twice a year. I've been considering getting the nose guard but I hate the way they look and don't know if the investment is worth the couple of times I'd use it. I use my car a lot, so it might be worth it during the buggy season.

Glad to be here.

Shaun

Welcome! We have love bugs here in May and September, but since they need rain in their life cycle, we'll have NONE this September as Texas is drying up! I put clear bra on the CR-Z and with the other cars, just wash them off daily in love bug season as those critters can do some major damage to paint if they bake on, not to mention what they do when you get the fins in your radiator clogged up with them.
