I thought this dealership sounded pretty great until I saw that they put their own dealer badge on the backs of the cars they sell.

Easy now, I'm not claiming superiority here. I think we can agree that not caring how inattentive driving (or walking) affects other people around you is wrong.

It felt like punishment after driving our fun Mazdas. I can pick on the car for a lot of things, but I won't argue with you over value.

Hell yeah, I almost used that.

"Attention Gearheads: Ben, Katie, and I think how most drivers think. We like the shiny buttons and the legroom. Driving is just something we do on errands. And we don't like to spend all our money on gas. This is the mentality of the Prius customer, screw you."

I'll let others handle the rage against the Prius as I know there will be much of it. I will simply mention the steering. Oh my god the steering is horrible. I've never felt something so disconnected from the road.

It may have been lost to the commenting system confusion but I did mention that motorsport is the only time I have found Twitter to be useful to me. During the 24 hours of Le Mans I loved the updates from the Corvette team as I watched the pit cam.

I suppose it is because all I hear are human interest stories that are ultimately pointless. I will concede that it is a powerful tool that should have been great, but even the best tool is useless when wielded improperly.

These are minor conveniences. Traffic is updated in real-time online or over the radio every seven minutes. I will agree with you that it has uses, but the media loves to make it out to be so powerful when nearly every example they show is trivial. Twitter is not a news source, as everything said must be fact checked

You are correct, and your scenario is just as uninteresting.

Every time I see a story talking about how amazing and powerful twitter is at getting information out I am so disappointed after reading it. It seems the entire exchange was ultimately to find out pointless details about someone's life which nobody else could possibly care about. This entire episode will quickly be

Burnout revenge is still awesome. Total chaos, cheating AI, and incredible sound as car bits shatter all over the road.

I really didn't like the handling in Forza and am a hardcore Gran Turismo player. I can admit its shortcomings, especially after tracking my real car but it has taught me a lot. The biggest thing I find missing is the feeling of balancing the car with the throttle and the feedback from the seat which tells you so much

I was laughing at that as well. There's no mistaking one of the most recognizable brand symbols in history. I can only assume the car had some type of cloth front mask like test cars usually have and it was removed for airflow reasons or fell off at high speed.

I had to rent a car a couple years ago and they were out of the compact I reserved. I was told that the only car available was a Sebring convertible. I was starting to get desperate, asking if I could upgrade to a truck or something but nothing was available.

Damn straight, that is one car I need some alone time with.

Please don't hate me for correcting you, but that car appears to be a Ford Escort Cosworth.

Seems like an expensive contingency plan when most of us should probably just put the money into getting our old cars more reliable. Maybe a AAA membership?

Damn good explanations.

Yeah, he better be claiming that is an airsoft. Why do people keep sending out photographic evidence of their crimes for all to see?
