First time Mini owner, Hello from New Hampshire

Bought my first ever Mini (2015 F56 base, Pepper White) this fall and love this thing. I was shopping for a commuter car as gas prices continue to rise. I also own a Nissan Titan which I also love but not the milage so much. I drive 90 miles a day round trip to my job and I'm soooo happy I went with the Mini. When my dad saw it for the first time he said "you should have bought a Prius like I have". I quickly replyed "oh man, a Prius is so cool looking... SAID NO ONE EVER... LOL." I didn't really see the need to go that drastic as the fuel savings from my Titan to the Mini cove the payment & insurance and I still get to put a few bucks back in my pocket. I like to do my own wrenching so I have browsed many posts here for ideas and direction for the things I want to do.

Hello Fly'n Brick. I gather from your handle you also ride a BMW bike? I have a K1200 RS, but a little too cold for riding right now. Thanks btw, and I will add photos when it warms up a bit and I can give my Mini a proper wash. I am also working on ordering all the parts for a chrome delete.
