Haha. I suspect we have different annoyance tolerances. I don’t care about stuff like that. I can’t. This is car number 22. I’d be buried in minor repairs my whole life if I worried about those things. Read more

Yeah, but it’s been like that since I bought it, it hasn’t gotten any worse, and I personally don’t really notice/care. Read more

And you realized Maine is some straight up gangster shit? Read more

Hah! She has been around for seven years so I think it’s anything goes at this point. Read more

The Jag. it drove better, it felt faster, the tech is newer, and it sounds better. But it’s worth noting it’s also nearly $30K more expensive than my car. For the money, I’d rather have the Aston. The Jag isn’t *that* much better. Read more

Hahaha. Love it!!! Read more

Yeah I used to do that one all the time! What am I, losing my edge?! Read more
