So, who’s calling Gamestop on August 20th?

Oh, and whatever you do, get an engine warmer added to it.

All I’m going to say is I just saw this article about driving to/through Canada. You should read it if you’re going there - it’s about the allowable ports of entry during Coronavirus.

I miss my XRS. Six speed Matrix! I’m hoping we get the hot Corolla hatch they were going to make.

God I wish I had a garage.

Guilty!

I kinda like that they don’t have active cruise control, stop/start, etc.

Same. Well. Not NOW given the lack of traffic these days but yeah, I’ve done four hour commutes with a Focus ST clutch.

Don’t look at me, look at the customers Tim Kuniskis talks to.

Exactly. FCA customers don’t ask about manuals. The ones who would aren’t FCA customers anymore. This is why I went Subaru.

Exactly. It’s the 12" or more days that get me. This car will handle any _reasonable_ conditions. It’s the unreasonable ones that I’m mentioning.

Yep. As I said it’s still pretty decent, even if the snow is bad. If the snow _is_ that bad, you need (waves at a selection of heavily used SUVs of various vintages) something with better ground clearance.

I grew up in a river valley with significant snowfalls. While FWD+snowtires will get you through most things, there are some cases where ground clearance matters.

This is a fantastic commuter car, provided the snow isn’t too bad by you. It looks like a pretty decent one, even if the snow is bad. Not a fun car, but cheap to run, cheap to fix, mildly distinctive so it’s easy to find in a lot. Shame about the trunk, but if you’re a two car family, this is a solid first car.

With the superior, one-year-only, lower wing.

It’ll need more aerodynamics but HELLS to the YEAH!

David, for this last week, here’s your music. You can do it!

That was exactly my thought - the hoodline needs to be raised a few inches, but other than that, perfect.

Suggested alterations: Got my folks this for their apple watches and they love them.

This is true, this is true.
