Unions = Mostly good!

Milan, Michigan (not the one in Italy, as is commonly mistaken)

I will say the first day I had my WRX, I accident ended up going 95 (no ticket, but still surprised me). Its the opposite of a miata, you can be at 95 and feel like you are going 55.

Just returning from a quick trip I call BS on this at least for interstate travel. There were 2 categories of speeders I ran across, the cheap new car i.e. anything Kia, Hyundai, or Nissan and then Chevy, Toyota, Dodge, and Ford trucks or SUVs an inch of your bumper weaving in and out of traffic. Now this trip was…

The one thing that most of these vehicles have in common is that there are a large percentage of their ownership that modify them in ways that make them more noticeable. Between lifted bro-dozers that look like accessory catalogs to lowered, louder cars spewing vape clouds, these are the type of vehicle that screams…

Once I was “parked” way out in the north 40 of a parking lot at a train station, no cars around anywhere near. I was just waiting for the final train to arrive to pick up my SO. I play games on my phone while I wait.

WRXes are police magnets. I received so many fucking tickets in mine. I didn’t even need to be driving to be accosted by a cop. I had cops check my window tint coming out of stores or after pulling into the gas station before.

Tinfoil hat time.  Maybe the muscle cars don’t get ticketed because they’re American cars.  Seven of the ten brands are foreign.

Hmm... Are they counting the STI separate from the WRX, in this case? If not, it’s the wing. Cops watch for the wing.

School zones. 

Why is blaming everything on Millenials still a thing?

Years ago I had a buddy who was looking at a buying a car and when the salesman kept trying to upsell him into an Explorer, he agreed to a test drive. As soon as he saw an open construction site (this was in the city) he pulled in and started getting muddy. He said the salesman riding shotgun got kind of muddy too.

The best part of the third video (Camry) was the addendum of how it ended.  In all fairness, it was in San Francisco and some of the intersections feel like you’re just driving over a cliff and hoping there’s a road on the other side.  I guess sometimes that leap of faith gives you a staircase instead of a road.

Used Acura MDX, one careful owner, never driven off pavement.

Going down the stairs is easy, if you do it at the correct angle:

Good question. I’m sure it’ll be explained in the lawsuit. On a side note, if she needs a good Chiropractor...

My immediate take is that this is the kind of thing that happens when an unnecessary vehicle (the SUV) becomes the ‘must-have’ among car buyers.  I can safely guarantee that this person didn’t *need* an MDX, and wouldn’t have gotten into this mess if she was driving a TLX.

Geez!  No wonder people were stairing at her.

There were 3 large stone planters blocking that “exit” back in May according to Google Street view. Would be interesting to see why they’re no longer there.
