So a family member has recently passed away and left his car to my brother, who lives in North Carolina. It's a 2003 Legacy L with only 48,000 miles on it, and I've been giving it a solid once-over before driving 7 hours down 81. Overall the car isn't in bad shape, but I will say this: I'll take crickets over piston slap any and every day.

Running away from this weather, read a tornado actually touched down on the oregon coast and Seattle area is due for almost cat 1 hurricane winds.

Hopefully, east of the mountains is a bit more calm... and the roads are clear so we can get some driving done!

Y que Dios te bendiga. Amen

Coming from a non mobile tech savvy teenager, the apps are put into a neat folder on the unlocked s7 I have and some of them in the folder such as the recorder, file manager, and voice recorder are pretty nice. The other ones are of no use to me.

almost had a pickup truck reverse into my front

he entered the parking lot by accident i guess to ask for directions from the gate keeper..instead of driving forward and making a u-turn to exit the lot i see his reverse lights come on and i slam on the horn ..luckily he stopped after moving back a foot and a half

it's one of those stupid things i see in the car crash videos on youtube...backup camera need to be standard on all vehicles for the stupid idiots

If they don't look in the mirrors what makes you think they will look at a camera?

much easier to look at a screen..maybe they will imagine it's like looking at their computer monitor when they are on facebook, twitter, instragram

I did that once in a pick up truck. F250 I believe. Looked in both mirrors and the rear view. Good to go...CRUNCH!

The lady parked so close to me her car disappeared...Meh, put my tow hook through her front bumper

I don't think so. It was dead.

RIP: Little baby bear.

Been enjoying watching it eat fallen apples in my orchard. Then today guys in a truck stopped to brag to my coworker and I saw it.
