That's how I imagine astronaut Lisa Marie Nowak's car looked like after she drove across country to murder her romantic rival. Did you also wear a diaper on your roadtrip?

Have a 2011 Carrera. Drive on trips between 70 to 75 on I-5 and get mileage of over 30 calculated. Computer is optimistic by 2 mpg.

Too good, but don't cross-post on any nutritionist forums ...

I never eat in my car. Can't stand crumbs getting caught in nooks and crannies.

mad spreadsheeting skills.

wat program/app is that and "how do you do that"? i wish i wasnt softwaringly challenged, coming from silicone implant valley and all.

speaking of eating in the car (which i do), i road tripped it back from Michigan to "SUNNY" california, a rogue apple juice rolled outa the grocery bag, under the passenger seat, only to get stuck/wedged, only to have my son slide the seat back and pinch/puncture the apple juice. In my brand new (to me) 911.

Patina's gonna happen, followed by death. (as morbid as that sounds, appreciate life people, cause ya dont know when the reapers gonna come knockin/takin, enjoy life)

on that note, i would like to know how to spread sheet like that. thanx, mike

I don't know Bruce this looks staged. Those Dorrito bags look like props....


Are they props ?
