not only that. I'll give a simple example AT tranny. AT tranny changed the purpose of what AT tranny was pupose to be. It used to be lesser time to change gears & focus more on the road. Nowadays AT tranny purpose is so you can do other stuff while driving & not focus on the road.

Having all the technology in the car really make them better driver? Computer is doing all the work, how do you expect ppl to improve their driving?

FYI I'm not against all the technology in the car... It's just something to think bout in free time

I've found driving older cars require a person to focus a lot more because the lack of technological driving aids and most older cars are deathtraps that it is almost a requirement to drive better/focus if a person doesn't want to die. I love it. Simplicity at it's finest.

I think I need to break it off with a girl I love and have been dating off and on for the better part of a few years. She's pushing commitment, not sure i'll ever have that gut feeling for her that leads people to be together a lifetime.

It seems like the best move, but I can't bring myself to do it just yet and I feel like a coward. Perhaps a few more months...

Just break it off and save yourself & her the time. A woman needs to find herself a committed man before her beauty & youth value diminishes and her options dwindle. Just think of it as doing it for 'her' and not for yourself. And you're not a coward you're just afraid of the unknown (ie dry spell, lol).

Yea manual transmission requires you to be thinking about the revs and gears and moving your hands around and crap, but because you're busy paying attention to that, you can't go drink your coffee and eat your lunch and s*** which is even more distracting. AT is so easy to drive that people think they don't need to drive, they can go grab their food and unwrap it, etc. while the car is just rolling along at 70mph. Scary.

Well, AT is one of example. There are several other stuff too, but something to think bout right?

They are giving guys what they want. Lots of FAN SERVICE. Now if only they can translate that into their Honda Car Line-up and give us the next S2000/NSX/Type R.

I've been disappointed since they discontinued the S2000 and released the CRZ

So, two interesting things happened today.

On my way to see a new project car, (you'll see that later) I stopped by Jim McNatt Toyota and saw this:

Not bad! A new RS8.0 tC! Pretty nice car, but where are the FRS'??

A bit of walking and I found this!

A nice and dirty Asphalt Auto!

BUT! Upon closer inspection, look what I found!

A wrecked skirt!

Views: 1054
Size:  114.1 KB

And on the other side too!

My assumption is that somebody backed over a Parking Troll and crunched up their skirts! Nasty!


Then, we arrived at our destination and saw this beauty!

A 1959 Morris 850! AKA an Austin Mini Cooper!

We are planning on picking this beauty up and doing a complete restoration! It will have a Honda B16 when it is said and done and will hopefully sport a classy Mini paint job too!

I can see that. Most people drive too fast or multi-task, usually both.
