Suberman has no interest in admitting he's wrong (although he is in every aspect of the word). He simply wants to rant about something that no other person on this forum agrees with. He is the type of customer that dealers hate: Someone that hates the car but bought it anyways. Then spends the rest of his waking moments wishing it was something else but with no interest in actually riding himself of the problem he so desperately believes has been created. You know, where it's "your fault, not mine - I know everything so it can't be my fault this car isn't what I wanted when I bought it" - type person.

I realized after the last thread he wasn't worth responding to. I would suggest that others do the same. Responding, even if it is to correct the mass amounts of stupidity spewing from his mind to his keyboard, only fuels his fire. Let him go understeer into oblivion for all I care.

As we've all learned from Suberman, the fastest way around a corner is going in super hot with the steering full lock and the front tires screaming for traction as you bleed past the apex, vastly increasing your turning radius and firing off towards the nearest wall.

Ah, the thrill of terrible driving! Such a rush!

Not so certain I agree here. Because others have actually bothered to respond to him, I have learned a great deal.

Remember the line from "Thank you for smoking" (heavily paraphrased): "I'm not trying to convince you of my position. I'm trying to convince the other guy."

Well, I'm that other guy, and I'm learning a great deal from those correcting (repeatedly) suberman. So, to all y'all...

Where is suberman?

Taro · 01-27-2014, 07:45 PM

So I'm just going to ignore Suberman, like he so clearly wants us to do, and complain about another winter-related issue.

You know how we're always getting all sorts of debris and dirt on the windshield in the winter, since we're so low? I've just realized that the car either doesn't have, or has a non-functioning indicator for low washer fluid. Trying to drive with a grimy window in slush sucks. Realizing you're clean out of fluid and only halfway home makes it suck more. Anyone else have this issue, or is it just mine?

Dude, always keep a spare jug of windshield washer fluid in the trunk. It's only the first rule of winter driving in Canada...

Haha, I was thinking about how stupid it was that I didn't do that all the way home. I've never had a car this low before, so I've never had to use so much fluid. It's actually pretty incredible both how much liquid the tank holds, and how fast I consume it.

wbradley · 01-27-2014, 08:08 PM

Hey, higher cars still need to spray the windshield every 2 minutes the way things are lately. On the WRX it is both front AND rear.

I found this out the other day too, couldn't believe it doesn't have an indicator light at all!

Good to know! I need to make a 4 hr (one way) road trip next week. I'll make sure to top up and throw the remainder of the jug in the car.

I'm still here, safely outside the monkey cage looking in, moderately amused at all the, er, feces flying around.

Occasionally I'm just saddened a bit at the depth of the ignorance but, hey, I tried.

+2

Even more reason to carry spares

7thgear · 01-27-2014, 09:24 PM

actually I've learned (twice now) that your "warning light" is unnaturally low pressure

once you start noticing a weaker spray you got about 10-12 small bursts left.

Well there you have it. Three threads later and I finally learned something out of all this mess. Thanks! Now I'll go check mine finally. Haven't touched it since I got the car!

What you fail to realize is that in this metaphor, your actually the feces we're throwing. You just fail to fly far enough away, so unfortunately we all must face the wretched stench while you linger around.

Taro · 01-27-2014, 10:55 PM

I came home and poured like, a jug and a half into the tank. It seems to be a sort of bottomless pit, but I don't see any need to find out where it ends.

@7thgear is correct about the pressure thing, though. There's usually just a touch more you can shake out of the line, a lot like the signature .gif he used to have.
