Saw a car plow into a guard rail in an inch of snow earlier. It was awesome. ---

Saw people driving like it was the blizzard of 93 just now. We got a dusting 5 hours ago and the roads are pretty much dry right now. 50mph in the middle lane of 87 is dangerous and you should not be driving. ---

I think 3" is generous (that’s what she said) I should just expect idiots in snow by now. But it makes me mad every year. Especially on a road like the extension when you get a rolling roadblock. Why can’t you both go painfully slow in the same lane? Also saw some sweet pickemup trucks doing donuts in the golf galaxy parking lot last night. Was really hoping one of them would hit the other.

> [@RTrac1"](#): > > I do not. > I just got my car a month ago though. How do you like it? Obviously enough to buy it, but that and the Fiesta ST are on my short list of “When I land my engineering job, I’m getting a new car” options. ---

Honestly I love it. I like the fiesta, but needed a little more space. I test drove a WRX wagon the same day I bought this. The interior was garbage imo, and even though I know the subie is a little faster, the ST felt much quicker and was more fun to drive ---

I think everyone I’ve talked to who purchases the Focus ST or MS3 said the exact same thing about the wrx. Bland interior and less fun feeling to drive. Sent from my iPhone using [Tapatalk](http://tapatalk.com/m?id=1) ---

I test drove a WRX wagon the same day I bought this. The interior was garbage imo, and even though I know the subie is a little faster, the ST felt much quicker and was more fun to drive I rode in a 500 Abarth, and absolutely loved it (especially the straight pipe), so the lack of space in the fiesta isn’t a huge deal. Plus I figure I can get a similar sound to what I like in the fiat by just putting an exhaust on the fiesta/focus.
