You'll need to get a vape pen too, but I'm sure the dealer included one with the purchase.

Also, I like to Texas my way down the road with Texas-sized shopping bags in the back seats. Go Texan longhorns....

Not necessarily directed at OP, I give my wife's family the same shit lol
Texas? That puny little state?

And yet twice as many people live in Texas 27.5 million vs 13.8 million. Maybe because you have 9-10 months of winter while we have 9-10 months of summer.

But like Texas 90% of our population lives along the coast.

105F is still nice enough to play golf or autocross. My dyno sheet from my old wrx shows ambient air temperature as 114F. For some reason there are plenty of open dyno spots that day.

Uncle Scotty getting banned was a good thing that was a long time coming.
His time of contributing was long past at that point.

Tired of seeing his same old stupid ass rambling and the way he typed st00pid and d00d all the time.

I'll agree to that. I get the feeling he just kind of got tired of answering the same questions over and over. As opposed to stepping back and doing something else, he kept rambling until the mods took care of it for him. As I said though, I hadn't been to the site in a long time.

To @Breeeep, grats on the WRX and hope you enjoy. Just keep posting here. Seems to be what all of the cool kids do.

Thanks, and holy crap you guys get off topic fast ! There should be a prescription of Adderall with every membership.

Back to the 'Texas' downpour ... I should have elaborated. This is my DD, so that means driving before 6AM in the dark with 10,000 other idiots.... throw in the color (DMG) with the size of the car and driving rain... and poor drainage ... and black asphalt(can't see the big puddles as easy) ... and crappy wipers(not fast enough)... and tires without enough tread ...and progressive bi-focals .. and back nerve pain... equals trade-in.

[Maybe if I had a bigger garage, or didn't have three kids in college.. I'd keep the BRZ as a weekend play thing]

After two days of driving the WRX I can say that I do miss the 'womb' like feeling of being in the BRZ. I also miss being able to shift/sense almost every aspect of the car with just my ears/butt. I catch myself looking at tach a lot when I never used to in the BRZ.... oh well.

Who knows, maybe I'll be back when the AWD STI Turbo BRZ comes out in 2018!
