Headin' Home!

Okay gang, I’m off to Philly to visit me mum, and take funny photos of her when she’s passed out on pain killers. Nice, huh? Relax, I won't post them, so it's okay. I'm KIDDING! Anyway, here’s a little something to keep you entertained in my absence. Have a great wekeend and - Peace Out!

The Car Boys Rock!

My favorite radio show (Car Talk) probably is so because they address a number of my automotive/driving pet peeves. One of those pet peeves is SUVs. I’m probably going to annoy some of you with my comments, but hey, that’s my job, right?!

Now, don’t get me wrong, I like the styling and the general idea of SUVs – tough, rugged look; getting off road and way out in the woods…. However, the majority of owners never even take their SUVs off road. To top it off, they drive the behemoths like they’re cars. THEY’RE NOT!! There are many downsides to driving an SUV. Anyway, I’ll step down from my soapbox and get on with the fun stuff!

The Car Talk site offers a quiz that poses the question “Do You Need an SUV?”

My quiz results suggested that I don’t necessarily need an SUV (duh!) and suggested other vehicles for me. Top two of the list: Audi A4 wagon, followed by the Audi Allroad. Do those guys know me or what?!!
