You’re flying down the freeway, doing 70+ mph, in the passing lane or left lane or fast lane as it is fondly referred to. When, suddenly, as you come over a hill, there it is. That service truck with oversized sheets of glass perched in the back. It’s like a scene in Final Destination, you…
My car is over 12 years old. And I just discovered by accident that it has this cool lumbar support feature. I was reaching down between the seats, trying to retrieve a petrified french-fry and found this little knob that I didn’t even know was there. I turned it and thought “Wow, this feels nice!”…
