FB makes a good point, there. If you check the pressure, you may find that it is off and you can adjust enough to fix the wearing. Worth checking!

My tires rotate every time I drive my car! Around and around they go... yeah, well. As far as moving them from one corner to another, I rarely do anything about that.

Snow tires can be a pain, can't they? Aren't you glad that you can get by with snow tires and don't have to mess with chains?

Yeah, for a kid just starting out these days, it's cheaper if you add on to your parents' policy. Even at that, it could be $1,000 a year or more. Usually it's paid every six months.

I've gotten to where I ignore most of the commercials. I just run the radio in the background for noise anyway, so it's not loud enough to be a big problem.

I don't have a tv in my car. None of those newfangled gadgets for me - well, except that GPS, but it was something my mother decided I needed last Christmas.

Looks to me like you'd either have to have an extra tall garage or an extra short car to make this work well, but it's a nice idea, sure enough.

I got floor mats, and seat covers. I had a steering wheel cover, but it didn't last long. I haven't done much with hardware - added a GPS, but that's about it.

What state is that, FB? I've been in a few different states without having had that requirement. I'm not sure I want to live in a state where I have to keep retesting.

I chew gum when I'm driving, mostly. I keep a drink handy, but if I get hungry, I do like UGG and just pull in somewhere and eat. I eat better when I'm not moving.

Jeeps are nice. I'm fairly fond of them myself. I'm not so much interested in a Wrangler as a bigger one. Maybe a Laredo. Need cargo space, you know.

I went out to go to work the other day and the front passenger-side tire was flat. I got it fixed and three days later it went flat again. There wasn't any obvious hole. Ended up having to buy a brand new one! Argh.

Ah, this is where you heard of donuts! As for burnouts, I quit doing those when I became an adult. No purpose for 'em and they are a bit hard on the tires.

Donuts are what you get on the snow when you spin your car around 360º. I haven't done it in a very long time, but when I was a teenager, it was great sport.

While I wouldn't want to be without my car, I think that public transportation is a good thing when it's done right. I grew up in a town with a public bus system, and it was nice to know I could get anywhere in town just by dropping a coin in the box.
