lol what you didnt see is that the guy driver of the station wagon had gotten out not to long ago to help out the ladies on the side of the road. He carried them across the street/river.

too bad the man that does the 360 while skiing from a car is the more likely candidate to be getting some xD

When you have a AT, and reach 4th gear by 31mph, and realize you've got no more power to make it to 60.

You know you own a 7th gen when passengers in your car ask you why you don't upshift when your on the highway because they see you at 4000 rpm doing 80 on the highway.

lol. Or when your dad borrows the car and calls all exited and says "Something's wrong with the car, it's at 3000rpm @ 60mph!".

(his Tahoe does 2K @ 70mph)

You know you own a 7th gen, when somebody gets mad at you for going too fast, and all you can do is smile at the obvious contradiction.

Re: You know you own a 7thgen when...
not me, but there was a member here with an older civic it happened to. considering there are only a couple plastic rails and some cable holding it, i can see that with enough wind its possible. i had that area taken apart and was shocked how weak the design was.
