In addition, I leave my headlights on BRIGHT ....... thatta way, the oncoming drivers can see me better.

Also, I constantly tap my brakes ....... I reckon that's a habit left over from driving vehicles with mechanical brakes (you know, the water would freeze in the cables in the wintertime, unless you broke em lose periodically).

@finch1750 ....... YES, my FR-S has a standard/manual/floorboard shift transmission. I tried those paddle things on mrs humfrz's car ....... they just confuse me.

Well that is what it looked like when I took it out of the box. True it didn't look that good long but since it could only be used 5 months of the year (note the rear slick tire) it stood up pretty good.

His favorite color is orange because all his favorite things just rust. It all makes sense now
