LOL...I remember eating it when my dad flipped one of those things way back...He was like “OMG are you okay...let’s not tell your mom about this...want some ice cream??”

Exactly...3x nozzles for the ultimate in windshield cleansing power!
That’s awesome! I love getting an education from someone totally randomly. A little golden nugget of info is a great way to meet people.
The Merritt is tailgate city. Most locals zip along at 85 or so...but there are of course the folks that hang out in the left lane and hold up traffic for miles.
It’s worse in Southwest CT...it goes from like 5 lanes to 2...and you get all the chuckleheads jockeying for position.
It’s hard to be taken seriously when you’re in a Mini. Luckily it has a fairly robust horn...so people who don’t take the time to see me, definitely end up hearing me. It’s funny how people take beeps almost as insults. But when people try to merge from the left lane on top of me, what am I supposed to do?
My 9-3 had amazing amounts of windshield spraying power. Whenever someone was tailgating me I’d just lay on the spritz and watch as they had to switch on their wipers...It was mega entertaining!!!
Parts of Brooklyn would probably be ideal...though I lived in those parts and would have been one of the dudes fogging up your glass to get a better look. I find that most people are just very disinterested in cars. You need like a Stanley Steamer to get most people to turn their heads.

I’ve always been petrified about people leaning and touching my car in the city. I was walking around with the GF on the Upper West Side and saw two tourists laying on the hood of a car parked in front of Magnolia Bakery (highly overrated) eating sub-par cupcakes and assumed it was their car.

The law is the law...you’re supposed to keep right except to pass. Two wrongs don’t make a right, but this is actually three wrongs so Senor CR-V deserves to be blasted from the planet.
I feel like a move of the emblem vertically a couple of inches would do wonders for it’s looks. Right now it looks like it has a pimple on its nose.
This is an old article:
There are some funds that do just this...as well as a vintage watch fund!
I miss my Saab...
problem with that is that there are people who just fling carts in the general direction of the cart stalls. One pebble in that autonomous-cart’s path and it’s heading straight for your car. I just park almost completely flush with the curb in a far flung spot that is the last spot in a row.
Also....can someone un-gray me? I feel like I’ve been here long enough to enjoy un-gray status.
I loved my 9-3. Was it shitty...YES. Was it always breaking on me...YES. Did I love it...EMPHATICALLY YES!! It was fun to drive (5-speed), it was the first car that I chose for myself, and it could actually be reasonably quick! Also...doing J-turns in the college parking lot and e-brake sliding into parking spots will…
