9/9/23: 325,677 miles, finally replaced driver's side knuckle with new wheel bearing, and is slightly out of alignment (bottom ball joint was NOT replaced) and angled slightly towards the left. When filling up the car, I was blocked by a Honda filling up a hydrogen fuel cell parked too far up (with the other hydrogen pump being used), the other HPR pump was being used. A few minutes later, a dumb ass in a Kia hydrogen car takes up the recently opened up pump to to wait, and doesn't notice I need the pump because the Honda is still there. Filled with HPR.
