It's funny to me that cars seem to go through the same things that people do. As the model gets older, they tend to get wider and heavier. Sometimes it takes forever, but sometimes it seems to happen fairly quickly. Case in point:
Justified.
Sorry I had to lol
It's by far been the most fun, longest lived and most reliable vehicle I've ever owned.

The guy's like 6'40", and drives something that's literally called a MINI...in all capital letters! I figure that makes him one tough sonumbitch! Besides, as a guy who drove a pink Rambler station wagon for years, I've come to know that the car doesn't make the man. His boyfriend does...![]()

I'm 5'7". Everyone is tall compared to me!![]()
How about 5'9" ?
