    Let me put it this way: is your nose stuffed and runny?

    If you can breathe normally right now, take a moment to appreciate having clear nostrils. Breathe it in. Let it out. Isn’t that nice?

    That’s what having a reliable car is like.

      Yeah this for real. As somebody who does my own repairs it hit me the other day how nice it was that I haven’t had to crawl around on the ground and fix some bullshit for a while now that I have a car that is less than 20 years old.

              Nice I had 3" turbo back on mine but I spent the money for the 42dd with the cats on it so I didn’t have any issues. The fun of the coilovers expires pretty quick if it’s a dd on Midwest roads.

      Yeah, my electric car was in the shop for 3 days and I didn’t realize how much I got used to not needing to get gas or how much I liked it until I had to drive a base model gas car. It made me appreciate my car again.
