Just for you, Jason:

The truth is, most driving is boring these days, regardless of what you’re driving. The daily traffic-riddled commute, popping out for groceries, etc. I do those things in a highly entertaining car, and they still aren’t exactly what I’d call fun.

Straight talk time.

You should have left it in...think of all the blackjack and hookers that could of been?

Jason, I have to be honest - I’m usually a little leery when I see your name on the byline, especially if the article is posted after 6pm on a weekend, but this article was great. Glad I took the chance.

Zowie! MR2.

Cramping is normally a sign of dehydration... sometimes it’s completely unavoidable, but keeping up on the water does seem to help.

Well, I was never all that good at wrenching - but I loved to do it when I was younger (I am now 76). Proudest moment was solving a heating air conditioning problem on 76 Gran Prix that had this Rube Goldberg system of bellows and arms and I don’t know what all.

The carpet tiles were probably being used as traction pads for snow/ice - if you are in that climate. I keep a pair in my car for that reason.

I don’t even consider myself old and still pat myself on the back every time I use the gardening kneeling pad I bought from Lowes a while back. It’s not something I thought about till I was poking around the store one day, saw it, and thought to myself that it’d be kinda nice to have something forgiving to sit on…

Get a good set of flexible wrenches. Whoever invented those needs a Nobel Prize.

I have an old mattress pad in the garage that I lay on. It makes a BIG difference.

Beats the alternative!

“TL;DR: Getting old sucks. I don’t recommend it.”

Yeah I’m with you - toats going to put that age crap back on the shelf!

Driver Score “B” for a hybrid sedan with a CVT?!

Your writing is far above what we see normally here at Jalopnik.

Please keep it up and make Jalopnik much more enjoyable.

It’s OK, bruh. Just cause you didn’t get the STI doesn’t mean you have to stop vaping, bruh. Here, take a flat-billed hat to make you feel better, bruh.
