Although my Mazda 3 is a BAD car for colder weather. This morning it was 34 degrees out or so and the low tire pressure gauge came on the dashboard immediately as i was backing out of the carport. In cold weather (extreme temperature flux) the light can come on which it did. So after work i had to go to a gas station to add air in the tires (rear right tire was a bit low) and then the light turned off on it's own. I would HATE to live in a place with cold weather constantly as this is a bit of a peeve now that i have to face when weather is that cold in the early mornings with the car. Otherwise i would have had to take it to the car dealer for them to reset the computer so it would turn off on it's own. Not worth the hassle when i can fix it myself with just a little air in a low tire.

Alex - are you allowed sharp objects anymore? Or, did they remove your tongue?

Volvo. Volvo. Volvo.

I need a car that runs on the blood of freshly squeezed kittens, with a baby seal fur interior, and a condor skull hood ornament. The exhaust note is the mournful cry of a manatee being mangled by a speedboat motor.

That's a controversial car.

And when I'm done suckin' down those grease ball burgers I'm gonna wipe my mouth on the American flag and then toss the Styrofoam containers right out the side, and there ain't a God-damned thing anybody can do about it. You know why? Because we got the bombs, that's why!

I can testify to the alarming capacity of a Volvo: Camping gear, Suitcases, Food, Beverages, International Luggage, Snacks, Daypacks, Souvenirs, Bears, Stoats, Pugs & ConeMonkeys.

Not to endorse Alex's suggestion that everyone who drives an SUV is a bad person--though they are, especially the women. And the men.--but for years, we did all our ski trips in a Honda Civic, chaining up as needed.

The smug highlight was driving up to Sugar Bowl in a blizard and nearly being smashed by someone's pickup spinning merrily down the hill.

Not to mention the automatic deployment of the sandwich tray when the brakes were properly applied
