Since when are commercials about reality?!?!?! But sadly, yes, that would be the reality :(

Re 3rd Gear:

I hear New England is nice this time of year. Probably should avoid Sparta though...

I refuse to buy products where the model is not smiling. I don't want to buy things that clearly lead to a pissed off state.

Saw 22 1/2 snow flakes this morning in Atlanta. By the time I got to work there was a shortage of milk, bread and butter at the local stores, 287,923 cars overturned and burning on the side of the highway and I'm pretty sure I saw one of the rednecks "winterizing" his truck with an extra shotgun rack.

I've probably spent a little under 3000 on parts while working on it. All told probably around 8k without considering the time/labor a buddy of mine and I…

I thought the Evo driver was playing for the Norwegians

Amen to the braking distance vs visibility part. That's a great test of the question "was the speed to high?" Can you see where you'd stop? No? SLOW DOWN.

I ran into the same issue a few years back. There was an 85 that was flawless, but at the time it didn't pass the 25 year limit. Instead I've got a 1970 that still needs a couple last bits and pieces to be happy.
