My wife hates it, and I love my wife. I have a very tough day job and I do like to spend time with her. But she told me in no uncertain terms she will not sit in the passenger seat. In reply #4, see a-e.

With regard to #4, #c, rain is a piece of cake compared to hail.

They are an uncivilized beast. All the fun in the world for the driver, but not passenger friendly (the opinion of the wife).

#4 forgot to mention frequent snake bites - getting bitten on the calf or shin by the exhaust. For most people that is a one-time lesson learned, but some seem to forget. Heat shields will fix this.

I can personally attest to f, multiple times. But I don't drive it like an old lady when I'm alone, and wife was not with me (that is when I drive it like an old lady.)

For "l", I can attest I've never found the circumstances where I could have the accelerator to the bottom.

Did I mention how much fun it is?
Tony, I gotta ask, how do you drive the beast when your girlfriend is in the car? tin-man
