I would have pooped my pants, jumped and rolled (and probably died).

Oh, Raphael! You are a sucker for punishment, you are! Please to enjoy my manifesto of what the most annoying thing people do in traffic is (at any given moment).

ORLY? I love you, Irving, but I must play contrarian.

I like it. Since I have free time on my hands, a lot to learn about cars and a 7yo boy to keep entertained, I started a TESTDRIVETUESDAY feature on my blog. Since I don't know jack shit about torque (although the FR-S certainly taught me a bit about it), it's mostly just about what the experience was like, nothing…

We (the husband, 7yoboykiddo, and I) drove from STL to CHI over Memorial Weekend for a trip to Six Flags. Basically Highway 79 to Highway 54 to something and then 94 maybe. It was a fun trip that was just far enough for us to not worry about Winston, the 96 Jag, or Bub.

Now I am going to nominate you. I don't care who you are... that right there is very very funny.

Get that shit off here. I just threw up in my mouth a little a bit.

I was looking at late 80s XJS and XJ12s and the husband says, "Jaguars! Pieces of fuck! Forget it! What are you, smoking crack?" I just said my usual "I dunno."

Aww, thanks, Cheese!

Two. One's an idiot, one is married. I know some nice ladies in St. Louis, though.

Anything offered on this page: [www.mercedes-amg.com]. The Emotion Tours, the academies, it is always awesome and not nearly as much as I would have expected. Trying to convince the husband to do one for our 15th anniversary.

1996, XJ6. 130k miles. Purchased for $3500 cash last year w/98k miles. Only things that have gone wrong on Winston (so far... knock on burlwood) are a speaker, an ignition coil, a front shock, the front tie rod ends (what was repaired that day) and front bearings. Runs like a dream with cold cold A/C.

The neighbors do not mind at all. They dig it and come around. We're out there washing them every other day anyway (at least, that is what it seems like). It also helps that we are at the end of the street.

I know what you mean, on all counts.

3PG... thanks for finding this. You always make wonderful contributions to the site and do wimminkind more good on here than I could ever wish.

I had never removed a wheel before, and then I did. I was supposed to learn how to replace bearings and tie rod ends. Then things did not go as planned. My husband got snippy, and I went inside and pouted. We'll try again.

lolololol

The better QOTD is who is that woman and what is she wearing?

Totally jelly, Orlove! TOTALLY JELLY. And here I was thinking I was all cool because I drove an FRS today. DAMMIT! DAMMIT! Good article, though.
