Nevermind, I Googled it. I am labor, we build the gibbets... But I get your point. ...Get a boat and sit in the lock, you'll feel like you are in a gibbet. We can have some "quality time" together.

I went on an open track day. Got a full day of fun in, from 9 to 4 with an hour lunch. Since it was my first time, I also had to have an instructor give me a basic class, which cost a little extra. http://gorally.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the job training, so you can put up the good fight with the bad guys in Lambos??... At least you'll be able to blast through median w/that Grand Cherokee when the bad guys crash. Anyway, that video is impressive! We're you taking that brick 45mph around that corner? I'd think I rather watch a tow boat with 6 barges enter the lock chamber, in the month of January w/20" of ice on the river. Glad you had fun! Just messing with you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you get yours yet? Picking mine up today! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picking mine up today! i did! i picked it up last friday. it is by far the best made i've ever owned. the entire thing feels solid. from they way the doors close, to just hearing the clicks when you press various buttons. it's fantastic. there's a definite learning curve if you haven't owned on before. i'm getting better with it, but i still read some of the manual every night...i just keep finding new things it can do. i only have two gripes, and i'm really going out of my way to complain about something. the first is that the car has the option that it will stop running and go to electric every time you come to a stop. i don't know why, but it drives me nuts. there's a button front and center to shut it off, but you have to do it every time you get into the car. maybe there's a way to turn it off full time, but i haven't checked that out yet. the second thing is i find that i have to close the doors multiple times because the things are so damn heavy, (which is a good thing). i bought my car from the lot, so it didn't have the option of the soft close. it's not the end of the world, but it would be an option i would get next time. i think your car probably has that feature. incredible ride. i'm shocked how quick it is for a larger car. i find reasons to take it out whenever i can. well worth the money.

I call it The Dad Car I have a 2015 Accord and love it. I bought it new, have over 150k miles on it, and haven't had to make any repairs. It's not the sexiest car, but it's fun to drive, especially for a standard sedan. When it dies I'll probably buy another one. The biggest downside is the ultra ****ty stock speakers but I replaced them with JL Audio component speakers. Now it sounds better than my old Millenia with the Bose system did.

Holy crap I already love this vehicle. Agree totally with you on the fit and finish -- just top notch. I actually like the auto stop thing; theoretically it will save gas if you do a lot of stop and go driving (I do). I have no idea about the door closing issue; they seem fine to me. I definitely need to take this weekend to play around with all of the settings (there are a gazillion) and figure out how I like things. I checked out the "adaptive cruise control" on my way home from the dealership and it worked really well. Basically, you set your speed and how much distance you want between you and the vehicle in front, and the car accelerates/brakes itself to keep that distance. So, for example, when some idiot swerves over into your lane the car automatically brakes, then speeds back up when the path is clear again.
