I won't be driving my Evo to work again in the foreseeable future. That **** was terrible yesterday. All I could think of was that I didn't want to be driving that car in bumper to bumper traffic then 35mph in 4th behind a minivan and backroads.

/commuting rant.

I never see minivans when I take the backroads to and from work. Just SUVs. 35-40mph in the backroads isn't so bad considering the speed limit is usually 25mph with a "strictly enforced" sign below it.

25mph? Where are you driving?

The backroads if drive are 35-50mph but everyone does about 40mph and tap their brakes every 3 feet.

It's much more fun to drive the corolla fast on a backroad and get it upset because the evo requires a lot more speed (more than I'm comfortable with for the street) to Mose it fun. About the only fun I have is straight line acceleration or if I find someone behind or in front of me who wants to drive fast down a winding backroad. What's even more fun is ******* some 911 or m3 in the corolla and having them blast off in straights then you catch back up at the slightest curve in the road. There are two guys I used to run into each morning with a 911 and m3 that just wanted to have fun.
