So last night...

Around 6:30 I was driving to my MBA prep class in downtown Seattle. My dad was home so I decided to *not* take out my freshly washed Evo and take his accord instead. Anyways after driving out I started to realize **** before rain was puring down like Seattle was experiencing its first hurricane. I immediately thought ***** I should have driven the Evo!* because honestly that would be the car I feel safest in.

So I started driving down thinking I'm gonna turn around but I then I would be late and I saw bright *** high beams and fog lights coming the other way on 405 around the Kirkland area...yep a GG Evo hauling *** down the carpool lane in stormy *** rain. Talk about adding fuel to the fire!

Moral of the story? NEVER leave without your Evo!

I don't get it, are mad because you drove your Evo in the rain, or are you mad because your dad drove your Evo?

If it's because you didn't take the Evo in the first place then you're the one to blame, because you didn't take it.

If it's because your dad is driving it, then it doesn't make sense. Because you're driving his car. Why would it be ok for you to drive his and ok for him to drive yours.

So yeap, the moral of the story is like you said. Don't leave home without your Evo or else you're gonna regret it.

Not that I condone driving in high speed under rainy conditions but just the fact that everyone was going 45-50mph and I can see that evo going at least 65-70mph (which I know for sure it can handle) makes me wish I had taken it.

This isn't about blaming anything or anyone, I just learned a lesson - I just never feel quite right without my Evo

If you're running on slicks or bald tires, not even the AWD will help. Especially true in snow w/out the right tires
