Project: Gravel Express MkII mod 0.

[D_Eclipse9916]

So, preparing for the arrival of the Gravel Express II (Tarmac Express? Porkchop Express?) later this afternoon, I had said that this rain today was "Perfect Subaru Weather" and that I'd be "drifting through stoplights like that Porsche commercial". My coworker had no idea what I was talking about, so I went and looked it up. You guys remember it:

Anyway, awesome commercial, one of the best car commercials ever, but I realized...5.8 seconds to 60?

Ladies and Gentlemen, I am proud to report that we are living in the future. A Camry does 5.8 seconds to 60, and my new car (which I take delivery of this afternoon) beats the lovin' pants off of that.

Channing, I don't know how you survive driving around that 2002. Does that car even get to 60mph?

Crazy how fast cars have gotten in general. The 07-11 Yukon Denali does a 0-60 dash in 6.2 seconds...a 5500lb fucking truck not made for performance. That blows my mind.
