From the Industry tab on the website I linked above:

1. Why are the throttle and brakes not on one side?

Many new-born drivers, when driving, will accidentally use the brakes as brakes and brake the brakes as throttles, which will lead to tragedy. The car was originally designed to use manual gear, the left foot is used to control the clutch, and the right foot is used to control the throttle and brake. But now the auto-blocking car is getting more and more, the throttle and the brakes are still put together, so the purpose of the design is more to continue people's driving habits.

There are 4 unpopular knowledge in the car, many people don’t know when they are scrapped, they can save their lives when they are critical.


I am NEVER going to China.

I really don't get it though. I've seen it's results. It works, it's like a miracle. I've seen it done at the Dragon and at the Super Meet. I get online and try to find one though? Nothin' Nada. Dead ends. A few tint shops and body shops claim to know a guy that works through them but you have to go through them and schedule an appointment = barricades, hoops, and red tape. Oh he only comes in once a quarter on Mondays @ 3:00am. It's like they all but disappeared. Almost like body shops were like kill the pdr guy we don't need him taking away our bondo business...

Yup. That is pretty much my experience thus far trying to get my S looked at. These guys seem to be kinda flaky and only do this sort of work on the side.

There is a chain in this area (and I think they are nation wide) called Dent Masters. I plan on taking my S there in the near future just to see what they say.

I got nauseous almost immediately and she's all like, "Um... I can't do this." The experiment last like all of fifteen minutes.
I drove the whole time we were in Ireland. I had more trouble when I got back getting used it to driving normally again. Smacked a curb pulling out if the first parking spot .

I'll stick with what millennials call Dad jeans, thank you very much. I would actually still wear cargo pants if Christina would let me.
