LDB...I have had plenty of personal experience, and I do understand where you are coming from. I have been in three car accidents none related to weaving or my fault, three speeding tickets, have had two friends die as a result of car accidents/carelessness (is that a word?), and several friends dump their motorcycles at 60+ mph.....so please don't assume I don't know the risks or challenges....I didn't join this forum to be told how to drive....If I wanted to do that I would put my mom and dad in the car......

On a lighter side..........The sound package in the R.A. is EXCELLENT....I don't even want to add or change any part of it....Well, maybe the door speakers....I think I blew one already....Same goes for exhaust....Does anyone know if there is a resonator on our RA's? ....I may just remove that and then add a tip on the stock muffler....It sounds great as it is right now....

Does anyone else weave in the RA's??? Or is it just me?

I was weaving a little yesterday, just to see how it handled compared to my old car. Granted, my Cavalier had the works done to it as far as suspension goes, but the chassis of the Lancer is so much better, I was amazed initially at how well this car actually handles! And I agree, I was skeptical at first of the sound system, but yeah it is great. Very balanced sound overall, which is something I could never get right with my previous setups.

I weave in Bumper-to-bumper traffic because of people going 40 mph in the left hand lane, and just fyi: Most accidents are caused by people going under the speed limit in the left lane and who change lanes when people are passing them, without using their signal, trust me, I see it all the time. Most of the time, I am swerving away from a slow drive then a speeding driver.

Yeah I've noticed "weaving" in my Lancer as well. Sometimes I'll realize I'm doing it and I start to question if I know how to drive or not or if I'm under the influence. I drive totally sober and I weave as if I'm a first time driver and I tend to sometimes hit the lane markers on the freeway. I don't know? Usually it happens when It's windy but sometimes it just happens. I thought I was the only one. Never had this problem with any other car. Although I've never had a new car until the RA and it does turn very easily.

Why can't you get the upgraded sound without the sunroof? It's a rhetorical question however it would be great to have the two available not only as a package but individually as well.

When I got my RA I had no clue that their were sunroof packages available. I was chocked when I found out they had a sunroof package. I'm not worried about the sound package considering I have a little over 2,000 invested into my stereo anyway, but I'd like a sunroof for when I'm hot boxin the car
