    ^^^ schitt man, whenever I'm out on the road, I think I'm gonna get a contact and pop pos, with the way things are around here these days. that or hanging out in a nice breeze in my backyard with my no-jobbed, grown-up at home neighbor, stepping out every hour. Nothin' against it or those who partake, but the citizenry around here are taking liberties with the possession law. Get fluffy, drive around, play on your phone, yay...

    That's why you gotta test it first by revving up to 5k in neutral, and dropping it into D.

    Favorite person should be in the back seat or truck bed to observe result.
