What happened in or around your Elantra today?

OR, a little hinged, metal box containing tire puncturing spurs. Simply pull the cable,Knox drops down, out fall the spurs, poof goes the front tires.

Terrible, right? But you feel that way after one of these bozo's stay glued to your arse mile after mile.

I usually implement a 3 strike rule. Shower them with washer fluid twice then brake check. Rule of thumb for tailgaters for me is "If I can see your headlights between the little crack between trunk lid and my spoiler, you're too close."

I got my LSAT score back as I was driving home from work yesterday. I'm sure somebody thought I was crazy because I pulled over and got out my car to lean on it and shed maybe one or two tears. Perfect ending to a long first day back at the office!

Awww man. I got all excited for nothing.

About that same instant, I see this patrol trooper get out of his cruiser up at the next block and stand in the lane motioning her to pull over.

One of those great moments in life that you treasure!

ABSOLUTELY! Although sometimes I feel bad for wishing that upon somebody, but then I get over it.

And turbo Sonatas/Optimas are awesome.

I wanted an Optima purely for cooled seats. I test drove one over the summer in NC and it. was. AWESOME!

Waiting on acceptance letters. All of my applications were complete before the holidays, so I should know something soon!

Experiencing that grinding noise from the front brakes now...I think there's a forum post here. I wonder if I should take the 'LanTra in?
