I is about driver attitude.
Saw a Toyota Prius that had a fart can exhaust, racing stripe, and a sticker across the back that said “turbo”.
And yes, he drove his mousepowered vehicle like it had more guts than it did.
Love my Subaru STI.
WRX on Steroids.
Better winter traction than my old Grand Cherokee.
Faster around corners than most cars.
EVO X is better but they don’t make a hatchback.
The Scion FR-S is a rebadged Subaru BRZ with slightly different trim. The Subaru Tribeca is essentially a minivan. As a Subaru owner myself, I know that the WRX is a fast, fun car and it’s hard to keep your foot out of it. The FR-S/BRZ is a sporty car but non-turbo. I suppose I understand it because it’s a coupe and would draw a younger clientele. But a Tribeca minivan? Sounds like speedometer calibration or something.
A few of those vehicles have been out of production for a long time.
I've never received a ticket in 10 years in my old Mercedes. LOL
Are Subarus still the gay car?
Ther you have it: middle age crisis drivers drive like they are indeed middle aged. Low testosterone has effects insurance companies like, evidently.
I think old Yukons are the poor man’s Escalade
It might be that certain cars are more likely to attract law enforcement...
We drove our 1982 Volvo 240DL for over 250K miles. I remember its being a super safe car. There was one report that stated that fewer than one person in 100,000 driving a Volvo 240DL died in a wreck. I think it was partly the car’s safety and partly the kind of person who would drive that make/model. And those who drive the cars with more tickets, are more prone to speeding, etc.
BTW, hubby drives a 1990 Porsche 911 Carerra. Looks better than brand new, mint condition. It is now worth more than we paid for it. So long as it is in mint condition, it goes up in value every year. Man that car is super FAST!
I would have assumed it was all the tailgating all-black pickup trucks with the Darth Vader window tinting who think Dale Earnhardt taught them all they need to know about freeway driving.
Although, in truth, the most costly repairs are probably caused by the distracted moms in their “mommy boats” (my name for mini-vans) while she’s yakking or texting on her cell and the kids are in various stages of crying, yelling, screaming and throwing things. Accidents probably happen less often but those beasts they drive cost a ton in body work when they do get in a wreck.
