Nissan made a futuristic Sunny yet put in hand crank windows to reaffirm that it's supposedly a cheap model. /facepalm

I really need to relax and go with the flow more. More often than not things work themselves out and me trying to influence the outcome didn't work anyway. Just wasted effort some times.

Yeah sometimes the stress isn't worth the reward. Not saying be lazy, but definitely work smart.

plus it'd just be nice to tell certain people here that I quit just to see the panic on their faces.
I hope it went well.

Good luck with that. I suggest you go in at a high level -

This works for me:


"God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,

Courage to change the things I can,

And wisdom to know the difference."

Guys. I really want to recommend not to buy a frs or brz. It has all these problems.

So yeah, don't buy it.

Please.

She was only meant to travel two junctions circa 15miles but couldn't find her way back into the left lane so that she could exit the highway, she ended up traveling 300 odd miles, finding herself in Scotland when the Police had to intervene!

Depending on where you are, lane discipline can be garbage here too. Though I'm partial to the middle lane when there is one to avoid dealing with on-ramps since typically 3+lanes are found in more urban areas. Left is passing, right is getting on/off, middle is for cruising.

Also, lol. Well, really more of 'silent chuckle' as it's 5am, but you get the idea.
