I like the Toasters... but I think I like the older square one more.

I had a 2006 Gen 1 for about 25k miles. It was great. But, some dude wasn't paying attention in traffic and rammed me, totalling my poor little toaster oven.

Well I just saw the picture and immediately was going to post..."You're probably going to get cracked on about aerodynamics but..." Too late I guess.

I had a Jeep Cherokee Sport which is about like a brick in the wind and my Liberty isn't much better.

I've never driven one but just from seeing them around...cool looking little ride man.

Yeah that is sad, especially when you know you can't replace it with the same thing.

I love my HHRSS. But I'm worried how the 290hp/390tq is going to be in the snow.

should bring new meaning to the words EASY!!! when applying throttle. the non nascar version seems to do pretty well in the snow, although she does tend to steal my truck on the really bad days.

Here's a before/after of my Gen 1 xB, may it Rust in Peace...

I had slowed to about 5MPH, to yield to a LEO with his lights on, but the dude behind me in a Dodge Ram P/U was chatting to his passenger and didn't see the LEO or me. He hit me doing about 30ish MPH.

Yeah, I was a bit surprised when they totalled it. The guy pushed the trunk into the rear passenger bench area. Good thing I had no one back there, especially on the passenger side, they would have been hurt pretty bad I think.
