I’m fucking stealing this, this is fantastic.

haha thanks

TBH I don’t really wanna stop you. You do you, boo

I can laugh at myself sometimes. 

Oh, I didn’t say manuals are safer at all. I said it stops me, specifically me, from fiddling with my phone. Please check again. And while I’m grateful for the apology, I realize I might have inferred something that set you off, so I feel like it probably wasn’t necessary, and offer a mutual apology back in return. 

Look, I’m not a fan of ad-hominem at all, so take this not as an argument to be made, but an observation from someone who tries not to take the piss at others but winds up taking a lot of flack from people who can barely read and write - and I don’t mean you. 

Kudos for transparency, but I’d suggest instead reviewing what you wrote before you hit send.

Then SAY THAT instead of all that other shit you said. That sounds like a perfectly valid point.

Why in the ever living fuck are people advocating fucking around with their phone while they’re up and down shifting? I’ve been driving stick for 12+ years. I went out of my way to buy sticks when I could have had autos. I don’t fuck with my phone while driving, and I’m regularly downshifting and upshifting depending…

I don’t know why you keep implying your normal traffic pattern matches everyone else’s. Doing 15 on the streets out here (they’re 45-50 limited) would be essentially suicide.

Do you stay in first gear at 30 mph? That’s the kind of traffic I’m talking about. Local street navigation is my day to day. 

I agree that it’s way easier than it used to be, but it still seems to take 2 hands in normal non-highway traffic. 

Are they counting the people who use Android Auto and Apple CarPlay? I can do pretty much anything the phone would let me through via the screen. I don’t know if their app is even bothering to factor that in, considering I can play with my car’s media head unit all I want in traffic.

Well let me tell you, Imma have WORDS for the next "Ask Us Anything".... assuming you're ok with that.

I'm not the most perceptive reader in the world, but I'll be reading with extra care from now on. Also hopefully you're slowly convincing your editors of how great it is?

I played through everything I could find in the Dreamcast version of this and even played the little VMU mini game for hours. It was great.

How come you never tie in your Yu-Gi-Oh fandom into your car articles... we need an editorial exclusive on this

Alexis, Lexus manager, definitely owned a Lexus. 

As we all know, English is mutable and constantly evolving.
Irregardless is in Mirriam Webster as “nonstandard.”

The NSX groups I’ve met are the chillest people I’ve ever interacted with. They’re all successful happy people who don’t sweat the small stuff and 99.99% of them do not care about drama or stupid shit. They even put up with my stupid Vette.
