Is it me or is it G?

Is it me or is it the fact that I'm driving a 260hp AWD sports sedan that I'm begining to hate everyone else on the road? People do not know how to drive in the snow!!! (or at all for that matter) Throttling back going up hill? I've been driving in lunch lines the past few days? maybe weeks it seems. I've lived in NY, PA and NJ and it's all the same. Maybe I need Prozac until Spring.

Sorry, I need to vent after today.

Re: Is it me or is it G?

I've felt that way since '96, when we got an Audi A4Q. I'm sure it will continue when we pick up the G35X (1/28?).

PS: not just in snow, but also in hard rain.

It is everyone else on the road, how often do you see some POS in the left lane and a traing of 7 SUV's with road rage stuck behind it.

Re: Is it me or is it G?

I don't know what it is with people. 55 MPH in the fast lane being passed by cars on their right. What...they don't notice cars passing them on the right?!?!? For some reason they believe the speed they drive should dictate the speed of the whole highway.

MAN IT PISSES ME OFF!!!

I was just in Italy....those people can drive on highways. Stay right pass left. You'll be doing 200 KPH and come up on a person from the USA doing 110 KPH in the left lane and you immediately know where they are from.

If it's a G it's 4 me!

Re: Is it me or is it G?

She was unstoppable this morning! I was plowed in by a two-foot wall of snow. All I had to do was put her in drive give it some gas and it went right through it. Now that I have no problems with snow my boss always expects me to make it to work. No more snow days for me (

If it's a G it's 4 me!

Re: Is it me or is it G?

Sorry to hear about the snow days. I wussed out and shoveled my driveway before I went off to work. My driveway gets the plow effect too. By the time I went out the roads were plowed. Smooth driving. I think everyone stayed home today. Nobody on the roads except some JA$$ in a Mitsu Spyder that I trailed for 10 miles on local roads.

I did a blast out of a NJT parking lot spot like you described about a year and half ago after an 18" downfall in my Subaru. All you need is 6" of dry pavement. At the time I was commuting from Manhattan. Took me 6 hours to get home (normally 1.5) that night. Ughhhhhhh......

Re: Is it me or is it G?

Its not just the G and its not you, its both!!!

People here in Ohio (which again!!! is not in the NE) can't drive in the snow.

I have 18" coupe, not snow slicks, so I can't go in the snow! My Explorer sucks in the snow too, but you can still drive it, unlike our G. My Brother's Expidition can do anything. Its a dream in any weather with FORD's Advancetrac, I love it.

Hopefully if I get winter tires I can drive the G in the snow!!!

Re: Is it me or is it G?

I agree, it's both me and G, and geographically OH is Midwest. Also PA, MD, DE is not Northeast (Mid-Atlantic). VA? South East?

I'm not a sectionalist, that war was fought over a hundred years ago at great loss to both sides.

Good luck with the tires!
