I am trying to channel my inner Clyde and say I've done what I can to prepare for the trip, whatever happens will happen and we'll move on to the next step. Car breaks, I bring it back home, fix it, and make another trip in a week or whatever. Car doesn't run right, we spend all day debugging stuff, don't make much progress, wasted day, ugh, but we move on.
I have no real reason to post this other than I'm super neurotic about stuff that is unfamiliar, and I know I won't sleep at all tonight, so towing down at 5AM is going to be pretty fun.
Okay, I feel better. Plus, Marisa is coming with me, and if nothing else we will stop at Pelon's for fish tacos (worth the trip by itself) and we'll get to hang out with Peter.

Yeah, if it breaks while tuning, it's a necessary, if unfortunate, step that needs to be taken. You're here. You need to be there. Only way to get there is to go through.
Dude, it will all be fine. It's not like you were planning to tow down there with the Outback. Bet that would be exciting! I'd be happy to trade you for texting maybe-kinda-sorta-trying-to-sell-a-car-but-maybe-not-type Craigslist people.
