106-108 here along the Columbia. Will be looking forward to a few degrees cooler in Spokane and CDA. Looks like they are literally only a few degrees cooler at the moment.
Could you actually see the tach ?
There will always be an automoblile in the drive way!
I don’t care if the bus stops in the front yard!
‘02 Carerra in my garage...
94 Z28 Lt1 here, will always have a vert with HP!
Yes ... very distracting sometimes .. but cooler’n SHIT !!!
When I was in school one of the biggest identity groups was the “gearheads”. Talking to my kids and their friends, I haven’t seen any evidence that “gearheads” still exist. Course they may just not hang out with that crowd....
I hate Prius drivers far more than I hate inanimate cars. Prius drivers sneer at everyone else like they’re the new priesthood of environazis but then when my family drives on I-80 what do we see? We see lots and lots of Prius drivers pulled over on the side of the road by Wyoming and Utah state troopers for SPEEDING!!!

Had a Prius guy want to race me on the turnpike. Really. I drove a Golf TDI. We ran fairly closely until we came to a looooonnnnggg uphill. He was a bug in my rearview.
I smoked him!
Lots of diesel in Europe. States wont let them in.
Same here.
There are a few young guys into older cars, not so much into anything recent with mods. More likely to drive in parades than on a drag strip.
Seems to be younger Mexicans and some Orientals into cars like small-town white guys used to be.
How about Cash for Clunkers, massive student loan debt and Obama’s youth job market crash as the causes?

You really need to get a more worthy object of your hatred!
In Chicago we have bicycle lanes that have ruined great two lane streets and snarled up traffic. So now it takes about 20-35% longer to get home. Thanks Democrats.
City zoning, put in place by liberals, and city permitting/licensing, put in place by unions, gave birth to the suburbs, highway systems and the car culture. Thanks libs!
Steve, I looked up your home page here and YES, of course you need to see that wonderful place. They sometimes/often host retreats, so people sort of wander around, but really, they do not care whether you're part of the retreat or just visiting. The chapel has a spectacular marble wall behind the altar. In itself, worth the visit. AND they have wonderful life-sized stations of the cross all over the property...Mass every day at 8 a.m. I sometimes get there in time. Hope you enjoy it. Who cares how hot it is?
Bike lanes in Seattle too, all over the place. Like there are tons of riders in the rain?
Their other cute trick is to time the downtown traffic lights to stop you at every single corner at rush hour. Idiotic! Not just maddening, but also incredibly bad for air quality, all those idling engines.
What jerks.
Turns out my wife has heard of it — an elderly friend attended a retreat there.
Being 165 miles away and 58 years old I am still discovering things in the Spokane area.
We will also be visiting the FSSP parish in CDA.
