Pretty funny. It seems like the surveying was done over in Europe to me though, even though its MiniUSA.

Oh and I can drive stick, it just smells funny after I park :scratch:

LOL - I can drive stick, and am left-handed! :) I have most of the traits described, especially in the "cars" section. Someday I will have a mid-'80s Alfa Romeo droptop, love open-roof cars (wife's Liberty and my G both have sunroofs, and have owned a Sebring 'vert in the past), have changed many a flat tire, had my own car in HS, and LOVE bumper cars. Oh yeah, I HATE bumper stickers too. :)

Good find!

wow dead on with the kitchen colors, amazing. lol

redsoxsstink 09-28-2011 06:32 PM

stick is the only way to drive a car, i love it!

KirkEvil 09-28-2011 07:10 PM

100% more likely to miss a shift

WayFast84 09-28-2011 07:27 PM

Driving stick sucks. Everyday I drive the formula I remember this, but if you want to go more than straight and you magically don't hit route 1 traffic in Edison it's not that bad.

My next car will be auto.
