I have to say Power Windows. If I had to hand-crank my window to scan my RFID badge to get onto the grounds of my employer then hand-crank it back up while pulling through the gate when it's hot and muggy or raining, I'd go crazy.

I think the shooter forgot why those safety glasses were on his head. :-)

Arizona also has an 85 mph max speed limit. 85 is the posted limited for a few miles of I-10 about 20 minutes east of Phoenix.

Route 33 in Southern California. That road is miles and miles of perfect corner-carving bliss. It's a shame I don't live anywhere near it now.

I'm from SoCal. It amuses us how scared other people are of earthquakes. They're actually kinda fun.

Cars.com might as well have said, "If you're going to buy a POS car, you might as well buy this POS car." What they wrote is hardly a glowing recommendation.

Wiper blades and light bulbs (any of them). I've helped so many people out with changing these and the reaction is always, "Really? That's all there is to it?" Yup. It's that easy. Please don't pay Jiffy Lube for it.

I do believe that the Mercedes E65 AMG is about the bespoke definition of a Navy SEAL in a tuxedo. Looks nice on the outside, but will kill you in an instant if you look at it wrong.

Lots of good in there, but just enough of that annoying Honda hybrid to ruin the over all effect. Lots of color, but too much beige overall.

Unfortunately, data crunching results like this get published when they're not actually researching anything. Of course crashes go down late at night - there are fewer cars on the road.

From my experience commuting, the absolute worst drivers are Acura TSX drivers. They do more weaving through traffic and cutting other cars (and trucks) off that I would never consider owning that car.

Tragic about the classic cars. About Fonda's bike? Good riddance.

I think that there are two cars that would be massively improved through offering a stick: Mercedes C350 and Lexus IS350.

My respect for fun-to-drive Mazdas increased 10-fold after their Rev-It-Up driving events in the mid-2000s. In the last two months, I have successfully recommended both a Mazda 3 and a Mazda 5 to friends (who obviously had significantly different needs). Neither person is what I would describe as a "car person" but…

Absolutely - you can't expect a guy in a car that has class to acknowledge a guy in a car that is the antithesis of class. It would be like a BMW M3 driving pulling up next to a Smart fortwo and saying, "Nice car." Just not going to happen.

Damn straight - watched it last night and woke up thinking about it. Classic...

@SigmundTheSeaMonster: I've had the same thing happen to me with my 12-year-old Prelude. I've wanted to ding the other car's door more than once, but just can't bring myself to do it. Kudo's for defending your parking space!!

Boeing employees are actually banned from having Facebook accounts at all. Those that do have such accounts have to create them under assumed names.
