My wife had one of those on her Outback......now, I'm not saying my wife is a shitty driver, but she had quite a few "hard braking" events, so we took it off and mailed it back to Allstate.

These are kinda pricey, but I swear, you'll forget they are in your ear after about 5 minutes. Downside- they aren't the best for music, but they are awesome for podcasts.

Having steelies should count for something......

Buddy of mine had one of these in 1978....the only difference was that he sawed the roof off his car making it a permanent roadster.

I've never driven or owned an exotic vehicle (closest thing would be my buddies 70 LS6 454 Chevelle with 4:11 rear gears-it didn't go all that fast but it was brutally quick)....I think your evaluation was probably 99% correct for anyone that owns a Ferrari, Lambo....etc.

Howsabout this?

Notoriously laid back? LOL.

When I was 16 years old (in 1976) I bought a 68 Beetle. It had bias ply recap tires and I'd have to say equipped the way it was.....it was the lift-off oversteer champion. I only ever went off the road backwards once...that was enough.

When we bought my wife's 2008 Outback, went went to the dealership at 4 PM on New Year Eve. We knew what car we wanted, took it for a test drive and made the guy an offer.

Just finished watching the video...really well done.

My wife had a 84 Ford Escort (remember those crapboxes?) I was driving it when the timing belt snapped.........at 52 thousand miles.

At least you were honest about it....sometimes shit happens.

Here's my Hyundai Elantra......

I bought a new Hyundai Elantra earlier this year. I called four Hyundai dealerships within driving distance, gave them the exact info and specs for the Elantra I wanted (color, options,etc) and asked them for their best price.

Any love for Rolling Rock?

About 30 years ago, an elderly guy and his wife pulled out in front of my dad. My pop was driving a decent sized box truck and hit him right in the drivers door.

All this stuff is amazeballs, but why doesn't valet mode turn 4 of the cylinders off and limit the horsepower and top speed of the car?

I'd hate for my daughter to have to go through what this man's daughter went through, but having said that- I sure as fuck don't wanna stroke out or get Alzheimers.....I want to go out going 90 mph upside down and backwards into a bridge abutment or in my sleep.

I did the 98 miles between my house in York and Temple University in an hour and fourteen minutes back in 1980. I had my 302 Maverick and it took a whole tank of gas.

I think the most expensive you can get it up to is 63,585. That a LOT of money for a pickup truck.....that truck cost 13,000 dollars more then our first house back in 1985.
