How long was the press conference? The only video I see on YouTube shows 22 minutes.

Am I the only one that thinks that is weird as hell?

But yeah, I guess Lincoln does have it. I tried to find a video on it.

I saw my bus driver using that crap when I took the bus in elementary school. I thought it was so futuristic back then.

I honestly did not know this existed till now, so you can imagine how shocked I am. LOL.

I don't like it. I'm still iffy about push button start, but damn you're taking away my shifter now, fuck that!

Yeah I don't like it. Still would prefer a traditional shifter, or *gasp* a manual transmission.

Push button start though is the best thing ever. I really wish my TSX had it.

Yeah I mean I don't mind it and all. It's whatever at the end of the day. But I'm not down with using buttons to shift gears. Pretty soon, cars will be driving themselves...

Lol, I don't know why, but this reminded me of a prank call my friend did awhile ago. Probably because I thought it was to Pizza Hut, but it was actually Denny's...

I am sad to see the pop-up cover for the cup holders in the center console no longer exist in the new TLX. That's one of my favorite things about my TSX (especially when people can't figure it out).

And also, here's the Aston's way (fast forward to a minute in).

Fuck me, I really wish these were 19inch. I could probably part out tires,tpms, and spacers and end up paying not even 900 for the rims.

The guy has been trying to sell these for a while. I've seen these like a couple of months ago when I was still wheel shopping.

55k. I dunno if PO ever replaced tires though, and I don't know how I would find that out.
I don't think they did.

the best practice to keep longer life in your tires is to rotate them every oil change.
this way, you can spot if the tires are wearing funny and can snip the problem in the bud by getting an alignment.

rotating every oil change ensures even wear between all 4 tires, keeping them longer.

Oh yeah i've been doing that.. It's just that I drive my car pretty hard and lots of "intense" cornering that at this point I've worn all 4 down.

Just curious though if my car has it's factory tires on. But I don't think theres anyway to know.

Ummmmm Dwight who?! YOU speak for me and everybody else in ORLANDO when you say "FUCK Dwight!" Such a whiny bitch. My prediction is he never wins a championship. Lol Do I still sound bitter?!

Kid, I've watched more NBA games before you were even born!

I just don't care for it anymore in its current sad state. I only watch NHL casually, and it is a ton more exciting and better than NBA.

But let me hurt your feelings some more by telling you that I despise MLB.

They just failed on every level. They ran out of time and luck. Coach got heart attack, qb declined too fast in one year, every player just sucked.

I didn't know you were from Orlando! Nice, have a fellow TSX owner and Magic fan haha. Been a long season trying to root for us to lose for a top pick lol. I really want Wiggins (who doesn't) or Parker if he declares, so I would love to have a top 2 pick. The good thing is we have two lottery picks thanks to the Knicks and Nuggets missing the playoffs from the Dwight Coward trade.

Yeah man, Golden State against the Clippers is going to be so entertaining. Especially after Klay called out Griffin about flopping on a local radio station.

Did you see this, Laker fan tried the shit outta Howard. LOL

Well that makes two of us! I hate the MLB even more than NHL. I can't stand a game that is so slow as baseball. And it's not that I hate the NHL, I just don't care for it.

Ah.

Yeah baseball is too damn slow for snails, and if I wanted to get drunk at a sporting event while watching for long periods of time, I'd go to a soccer match. At least people there get into it and have a good time.

I like NHL because it is crazy how much action goes on up until the last second. I've seen games change within the final second of play and the madness that ensues.

Why would anyone not buy the SH-AWD model if you care about mpg?

That's sooooo earlier this week, rawger.


Saw a CLA on the road, and while it looks better than the new A3, it is still just a $45,000 badge.

Sadly people will still get those cars instead of a used TSX that puts out more power at FWD.
