    Pardon the fuck out of me! When I am in the situation that I need to stop suddenly, my mind screams, "Stop!" and my foot instinctively jams on the brake.

    Anti-lock brakes aren't standard on vehicles, btw. It is an option. If you buy the base model, anti-lock brakes are usually part of the 'safety" package.

    I haven't heard it. I have thought of putting an air horn on my car. They are really loud. My dad had one when I was a kid and I was riding my bike not paying attention and he blared it and it about knocked me off of my bike it was so loud.

    yeah that shit is fucking stupid, along with glass packs, and whistle mufflers. It gives you less gas mileage, like 8 Miles per gallon, but man, can you annoy the piss out of everyone in that fuckig 8 miles, whilst you have to fellate truckers to get gas money!

    I want a train horn for those people that take their sweetass time crossing the road ... I hate the whole new "pedestrians have the right away" law. I say cars are bigger and faster... they should have the rightaway.

    I hate it when a black guy is crossing the street and doing it in a pimp walk way, then gives me the "wassup" head nod. I would love to have that redneck horn and scare the shizit out of him... and interrupt his coolieo swag walk.

    I forgot to take into account the frozen road aspect... We don't get those down here, so anti-lock brakes don't do us as much good as they do the other 47...

    Didn't mean to jump at your throat back there... I couldn't help it, my brakes locked up on me... ;)

    Right. I almost rear-ended someone last winter because although I saw that traffic was slowed, I hadn't realized it had stopped and I hit the brakes in the slippery road and it kept me going forward and not all over the place.

    But I also jam them, so you're still half right in chastizing me.

    I think most manufacturers make rear wheel anti-lock brakes standard now, I think its the law or something, I think 4 wheel anti-locks are the upgrade. Soon sidecurtain airbags will be standard too, they just have to let the manufacturer charge for them a little bit before they permanently stick it to you. Pretty soon you'll get in a wreck and your car will look like the mars lander.

    On cars, ABS is connected to all four wheels. On trucks and vans, ABS may only involve the rear wheels.

    I looked at new cars last summer and ABS was an option on I think all of them.

    That's ridiculous. If they make you wear a seatbelt they should make auto manufacturers throw in the safety stuff for free (to a point).

    I know. I think it's gay to pay 1k for air conditioning too.

    Maybe it's because I was looking at cheaper cars like the Dodge Caliber and the Mazda3. The higher end junk probably has a lot more to offer.

    We actually looked at the mazda 3, the 'i' touring or whatever. Its a nice little car. Im a Dodge fan, but I think for long term buyer like yourself you'd be better off with the Mazda.

    I didnt know you could still buy vehicles without air until I went looking at trucks. I was looking at a new, stripped down GMC and it was really stripped down. AM Radio, vinyl seat, crank windows and no AC.

    I could deal with everything but the no ac.

    I already have a horn like that on my rig. I only suffered from Road Rage one time. We're trained to deny ourselves that right, but every now and then someone just rubs us wrong.

    I was on a two lane highway in the backwoods of delaware. A family of "wild niggers" was in front of me going about 30 miles an hour in a 50 zone. Everytime we came to a passing zone, they would speed up so I couldn't go around... then slow back down after it was too late to pass. After about 4 miles; I was screaming and laying into the airhorn like a maniac. It was at that time that I lost it and decided to kill them.

    So I jammed on the accelerator, and prepared to ram them. Figured no one would find me all alone out here in the nowhere land of delaware. Unfortunately, my rig goes from 0-60 in a hour and a half. The niggers saw what I was doing and made a run for it. I chased them at 65mph in a 50 for another 4 miles. When they came to the stop sign near the Patty Cannon house, they saw I wasnt slowing down for it. I was prepared to ram them at 65. They ran they sign and so did I. Then they ducked down a dirt road and lost me. Damn Nigglings.

    That story was great. I told my husband about it and he laughed. I think he especially liked the part where you say, "Unfortunately, my rig goes from 0-60 in a hour and a half." :)
