Gravel roads in the styx

I'm lucky to live out in the styx with many rarely used gravel road. They can be a lot of fun after midnight. Anyone else taken their shiny new Scion for a hard drive thru gravel country roads? So far she still looks new after washing, no paint chips.

My heart is breaking, my body's aching, and I don't know where to go.

The River Styx?

Yeah, I know. I just always thought it was spelled "sticks," as in, "you live out in the woods." Woods/sticks. But... I have to confess I mostly just wanted to make a reference to the band.

They were a good band when I was a kid, my first album (vinyl) was Styx

You could put mudflaps on your Mr. Robot album. Best of both worlds.

Precisely. And hand brake turns, and rally FTW!

Seriously though, I lived in the same stick-ish area that the OP did for a few months with my FRS, and in a few years if I ever have a used FRS I don't care much about, I will be spraying gravel for hours at a time
