I was always under the impression that those signs in valet lots and impound lots and at auto shops and whatnot that say “we are not liable, yadda yadda yadda” don’t actually hold any water from a legal standpoint. That’s what I was always told, anyway. Or at least what I’ve read online before.

Honestly, fuck the title of this article. Like, WTF...

I disagree with this, because the scenario you are considering as, say, only 5 - 10% of your driving, is also the scenario where your odds of being involved in a collision skyrocket. So in reality, the risk/reward ratio isn’t what you claim. Sure, 90% of the time, your all seasons may handle a bit better, and stop a…

It doesn’t depend on where you live when it comes to summer tires, which is what I was talking about. You could live in Florida for all I care. If there is any degree of wintery weather on the ground, the car on summer tires should not be driven. End of story.

The sheer number of people who think they can "get by fine" on summer tires is mind-numbing, and I think a good example of a glaring omission in the driver education process (of which there are many in the United States.) That summer tires should NEVER be driven in winter weather should be common knowledge. Not common…

The annual meeting of the “one more week before I switch to winters” club.

And yes, I’m aware most people don’t even know what winter tires are, or believe they are actually useful.

I don’t think that argument holds water. The argument against EVs is that they cannot be refueled in a short period of time. That has literally NOTHING to do with overnight charging. This is likely more to do with people being idiots, and too lazy to adapt their behavior.

“I’ll just keep doing what I’m doing because…

The sound he made pulling that tear tab is the same sound I make removing that clear plastic protective wrapping from other people’s things when they aren’t looking. I always get excited when I see something that is CLEARLY meant to have a glossy finish, but instead has a slightly dull, matte look to it.

1. I hope the dashcam driver charged them for more than just underwear. That car was probably covered in dents from all that falling concrete.

2. The dashcam driver is also a fucking moron for continuing to follow directly behind that truck as it went under the second bridge.

I know, but these are WAY louder than 120 dB though :P

We will agree to disagree, then :)

That is absolutely NOT too long-winded. At all.

Fine. Then just, “YOUR VEHICLE IS TOO TALL.” That’s plenty short enough given the situation. The point is it needs to be something that sounds specific to one person, and not generic. The current verbiage just seems like generic verbiage that they decided to turn into a flashing sign, but “probably doesn’t apply to me…

Meh. I can see the argument. What if it just illuminates every time any taller vehicle comes through? It would make more sense if it said something like, “YOUR VEHICLE IS TOO TALL. MUST TURN.”

Seems pretty dumb to haul an entire fan boat around just in the event that they happen to run out of gas. They probably could have made it to the gas station if they hadn’t been hauling a fan boat around to begin with. Dummies.

I am not taking your bait, lol.

I dunno. I’ve driven a Forester, and I didn’t have any complaints. In fact I remember being impressed that it actually cornered rather well. It was an XT, though. My friend also likes the Forester XT his parents have.

And both of us drive BRZs, so it’s not like we don’t know what good handling is, lol.

When did you drive it, and what model/year was it?

Thats almost as bad as the spider. Almost.

I wouldn’t really recommend it for several reasons:

1. Small is good in terms of number of passengers, sure, but it’s also much less useful for things like moving to college, buying new things at college, moving out of the dorm and into an apartment in college, etc... Don’t get me wrong, the BRZ has a surprising amount…
