When I drive my dad's Tundra Crewmax or my sister's ES300 I find myself wondering at first why things feel different, but I quickly remember that the cars are extremely different from one another, no curbs just yet *knock on wood*

I drive like an idiot when I get into my daily which is an six speed accord sedan. I have to remind myself that I'm not driving the S, but rather a bulbous behemoth like sloth.

If you're hitting curbs, you've misjudged the apex.

Rookie mistake, but you can learn how to take a corner with practice.

Never had those issues with any vehicle....

After driving the S for weeks on end and switching to a "commuter" vehicle I tend to brake like I was in the S which makes.......things fly in the cabin

No...other cars are a Prius and a Miata though.
Yikes! Driving a Prius would make me want to dive out of the car and curb myself.
