My car is LOVING it. It failed to start one night, and that was because some water got in the tank I guess. But its doing great.

I just have to pull the e-brake in every turn. The car told me to. :P

You know those big icey snowbricks that build up behind your tires on the mudguards. Ya two giant ones fell off this large Ford truck, I dodged the first one, but the second brick bounced off the front right of my bumper, scratched it up and chipped my lip.
Other than that it's been fine driving :P

i lost control today but didnt hit anything luckily. I am avoiding driving my car in this weather. Probabally in March I will start using it properly again.
