Cheers to another AlbertanMy wife claims I drive like a Grandpa. You know what though... after getting so many points against my license (all for speeding), cruise control has been my bastion. I always set it for 10% higher than the existing speed limit. (except on a highway known as the QE2 here in Alberta).
Because a poll named “how old do you feel inside” would not give me the data I need.What does chronological age have to do with one's interest in or ability to acquire such an amazing vehicle?
Haha, if I had to answer that it'd be 20 years older.Because a poll named “how old do you feel inside” would not give me the data I need.
I hear that. My younger self used to leave work at 5 on Friday and drive up into the mountains to soar. Being a weather-dependent sport we drove around a lot trying to find a place that was soarable. Typically I'd arrive home very late Sunday...sometimes so late I just drove directly to work. I had so many speeding tickets they opened up an annex at PennDot just for my file. Over 50 points (I stopped opening the mail). Lost my license for 3 years. Upside is that's how I met my wife (riding a bus).My wife claims I drive like a Grandpa.

I get bored and scared driving at legal speeds on the freeways. I like to just stay in the left and be the fastest car around, but I don't tailgate (pet peeve)...I have scruples. The new me loves the adaptive cruse control. I'd be happy to stay in the right lane for the rest of my life were it not for the 99% of drivers that do not know how to merge onto a highway.
I am a grandpa now so ....
ps bunny you should have gotten the e63s wagon ... I regret selling that more than I regret selling the R129 V12.

had to sell it. absolutely could not drive it slowly and carefully. Stops on a dime and gives you a nickle change. Wife was constantly on the nag brake. She's right though ... I've driven that car way up into 3 digits (mph digits) for long long ... sheesh I was insane with that car. If you ever get a chance, stand behind one when it starts up. A friggin' station wagon for crysakes.Now, that's a hot car.
Hubba hubba!!Now, that's a hot car.
