Another vote for kicking the doors open. Main reason I haven't gone the alcantara route on the speaker kick(sigh) panels.

Having my seat moved when I get tires rotated/other minor maintenance done is just under a pet peeve for me, which is surprising, since it usually takes me like 8 tries to get the position right. I really should mark it.

I have another peeve due to vanity: I really with the steering wheel extended another inch or two. I have a pair of Doc Martens that make me about 1.5 inches taller, and I'm already 6'2" which is mostly legs. So it's a little awkward to get set up, but still doable if I sit pretty much bolt upright. But, if I'm going somewhere and have Robert Smithed my hair, then I have some issues. Not a huge issue, but a bit annoying.

this is why I don't carry my gun in the car....

I swear I wish I had a go pro.

There is this specific section of my commute.

Uphill "S" into downhill straight.

People go from 60 to 40 to 70.

Everyday I want to gouge my eyes out...

I'm considering getting one for kicks. Yesterday I saw a Yaris trying to race a GXR...

Remembered one last night while I was on the road...

People who swerve into the left lane while taking a right hand turn.

Ha, Ha, we have two of the whiney threads back to back right now! http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=87909
This should send @Tromatic right over the edge.

has anyone mentioned when a girl puts her bare feet on the dash? because I want to break check them and make her knee herself in the face. I've told them a million times but they all continue to do it. hell I'm pretty sure it's the first thing I say if it's her first time in the car.

Well that would depend on the circumstances of why the feet are going on the dash!

When that occurs, I always remind them that if the airbag goes off they are going to have a hell of a recovery when they fold over like a calzone from the impact. That usually solves that problem.

The little gem I posted above is probably the least graphic picture of the results of feet on the dash during a crash.
