In 2009 I also changed my serpentine belt.

Welcome.
Check ur math. Bought it in 08 with 4k miles, you now have 70k miles, but only drive 2k-3k miles per year. Something doesn't add up.

Nah Mike...I'm thinking 64K miles when purchased. Either way....welcome aboard. I'm sure the 4x4 Status came handy in the winter time. Check out the NYCM squad when you get a chance.

I made a mistake
I bought it on December 23rd 2008 with 64k miles
In reality it comes out to an average of 2k per year (I did not drive the car in December of '08)
It was late, I couldn't do math

welcome to the forum, How long have you had air ride? Does the compressor freeze up on you during the winter time?

I have this current setup for almost 2 months now
I had other air ride setups (90 Accord and 07 Altima). My Thomas compressor blew up in my Accord but the ViAir worked great all season in my Altima, no issues. I currently use the ViAir 480....I wouldn't go with anything else. Only thing I would worry about during cold winters is the airlines freezing up.
90 Accord (I know...riced out lol):
07 Altima:
