Driving in Colorado after it snows. Don't get me wrong, I love the Evo in the snow... control, drifts, etc... but the drivers around here are crap. Not sure if it's non-natives or what, but there's seemingly 2 drivers taking up the roads these days... The SUV/Truck/AWD Subaru that can't manage more than 15-19mph or the SUV/Truck that goes into a ditch for no apparent reason. I'm starting to think that, SUV's especially, are some of the worst handling vehicles known to man... but it's probably just the drivers.

it's the drivers, lol. they seem to think they are invincible or they are afraid to drive.

I hate getting stuck behind a subaru going up a hill. They always seem to go under 10mph. You just killed my momentum.

I'll second this. Colorado has some bad drivers, and I'd say the bulk of the bad drivers are natives. Unless you're mountain dwellers, you aren't used to snow or ice. BTW, Colorado is the only place I've lived where there's the weird native/non-native designation. Especially hilarious when it applies to people that most likely have been here a generation or two. I don't think white folk are Colorado natives.

That won't happen if you're behind me in my Subaru

People that think because they modded their cars that it's worth more. It actually depreciates the car!!! The best(worst) is when they put crappy suspension on it and try to convince you the car is worth more.

I understand there are exceptions, but still.

yup, same goes for bikes, ATV's, etc. Nobody want's your stupid crap. Put it back to OEM and part your personal stuff.

nope, they are in the left lane as it has less snow. Fine by me, means I can pass them all doing 65 in the Evo in the snowy lane. Also, if I pass you in the snow on a 4 lane road, don't give me dirty looks. You are the asshat driving in the middle of two lanes because snow is so scary to you... get the frick over. :mad:

I have no issues passing on the right, but some bonehead is clogging that lane too..

My front porch light stays on all night. It's a small cfl with a photo sensor. not very bright

I leave my porch light and my outside garage lights on all night. Turn em off during the day at least. I don't like shrouding my house in darkness at night. Deal with it.

Really? Really??

It appears that you're the one who can't 'deal with it'. I could give a shit what you do with your lights..

I was simply posting (see thread title).
