Which is annoying when people don’t realize this and see, oh I don’t know, “Nebraska” on the plates of your rental and assume that’s where I’m from. Even though I’ve lived in this state my whole life ,…

Thanks. Somebody took a pic of her at a meet and posted it so I can’t take credit for the pic but that was my actual car. Absolute favorite car I’ve ever owned. I’ve owned faster, rarer, …etc.

When I was was about 5 years old my dad taught me to ask myself this:

Bird? Bugatti? I am disappointed nobody has referenced this yet.

Heart click from a native of the greater RVA area for GWAR reference.

Yes. I was going to get on the safety glasses soapbox! Since I work at a repair shop and have for years, occasionally we’ll get a report or see something about where safety glasses saved some dudes eye(s) because XYZ happened.

Weird. Even in the tiny town I am in, it isn’t hard to stop and fill up. Doesn’t take long either. When I need gas, I stop and get it and move on with my life. NBD.

I personally would pick up on that way quicker than a Camry, Fusion, Accord, something more common. Especially if debadged or badged incorrectly. (How around to begin with, let alone the same color with the wrong badge multiple times, haha!).

Popular fleet car option for traveling occupation. Around here they blend in with regular dime a dozen Camrys, Sonatas, Accords ,…(all good choices as well).

Well said. As former Integra(DA & DC) owner, I agree.

Don’t forget disposable CVTs,…

Unfortunately I’ve witnessed sexism first hand around cars, many times. I’ve spent essentially my entire career in auto repair or maintenance. Yes, being a car enthusiast inspired that. I spent about a year in auto parts management. I worked with several women that spent their careers in the industry, were old enough…

Sounds like what I remember of getting mine in Virginia, for learners anyway.

I had to take a short computer exam to get my learners at 15. At 16 I took a week long course called behind-the-wheel. Some guy picked me up in a Tercel. I drove to all the other classmates houses and then we switched drivers for a bit. Then we switched again and that last driver took everyone home. The last day of…

Some of us didn’t even get a hand me down minivan and had to buy our own vehicle(s),…

That’s about how our Forester was with a rear facing. Which is why I’m surprised he mentioned putting two babies in one ,…

Which is why I’m forever the minivan advocate.

Two babies in a Forester ? Eh not rear facing babies! When #2 came we had a rear facing and a booster in our ‘08 Forester. My (short) wife could barely uncomfortably (and probably not safe due to airbag) fit in passenger front seat with rear facing behind her. I literally couldn’t attempt to ride there. I’m 6'…

Parts not available for an Integra? Except for maybe the first generation Integras, you’ve got to be kidding! Rockauto for stock type stuff, PasswordJDM,…tons of places ,…
