Rant of The Day: Bus Stops

This might as well be the rant of the week... it's been a while.

The yellow 'cheese' bus as they call it, is what I have a problem with.. The bus that usually pulls in front of me while I drive to the train station stop on a straight road about FOUR times. Not every quarter mile, but every block. Is this really necessary? When I took the bus in middle/high school, I walked the length of my street to catch the bus. It saves time and prevents blockage of traffic by integrating those four bus stops into one.

2008 Lexus IS-F

This post is long overdue! Congratulations to myself for my "new" car purchase on May 7, 2011. I purchased a 2008 Lexus ISF with 16k miles on the odometer. Why a Lexus? Why automatic transmission? Why not another coupe? These questions along with others will be answered. It will not only be a review, but I will provide justifiable reasons for my purchase. Before I started car shopping I started falling in love (yes, like an infatuation) with numerous cars that were in my price range: Audi S5, Lotus Exige, 2006-07 BMW M6. However, these infatuations were short-lived. I had to decide on a car that was best for my wants and needs instead of blindly pursuing cars that were simply the 'apple of my eye' and nothing else. The Lexus ISF came the closest to meeting my wants and needs. Below I'll explain my wants and needs and how the ISF met them, and in some cases exceeded them: 1) Reliability. Japanese cars are known for this. I have been driving my 1998 A...

Rant of The Day: People on the road

This isn't your common rant, where I complain about people driving slow. It bothers me when people behind me at traffic lights stop very close to my bumper. Especially on a hill. My car rolls back on hills, as do other vehicles on steep hills, but people continue doing it... until they get nicked. Give me space! I think people who drive manual can relate to this the most.

Rant of The Day: Frigid Northeast Temperatures

I wouldn't be surprised if this was the coldest/snowy winter on record. With the windchills, temperatures are close to zero. You know it's freezing/snowy when it takes 45 minutes to move 10 feet in your driveway, and when 32 degrees feels like a heat wave. Just yesterday and the day before it was 42... so warm I felt like playing basketball outside while driving with my sunroof open. I'm just glad the snow melted away during the "heat wave" so I didn't have to skip slush puddles in NYC, park my car on the grass, or slip on black ice in the driveway. Of course they all say it could be worse. Thank god we don't live in Snow-klahoma or Chicag-snow.
