Car Gripes
Okay, when exactly did car makers decide to automatically lock all the fucking car doors without one's approval? If I wanted my car doors to lock, I would lock them.
Also, when did they start making "put your fucking seat belt on!" noises? I always wear my seat belt, but occasionally it takes me a few seconds before I get around to securing it. Do I really need an alarm? |

It's for your own safety. Don't question the auto manufacturers.

My Silverado lets me reprogram if the doors autolock or not. Maybe your Ford does too? Did you check the manual?
My wife's Honda does an annoying thing that I haven't been able to get around. If you unlock the car with the key remote, but don't open the door within a minute, it relocks itself. ![]() |

You know what I hate? Those nets in the trunk. Always getting tangled up in everything.

It's not Fords' responsibility to protect me from carjackers.

I always wear my belt, but this alarm helps me to get passengers to buckle up. I love cars today. |

I used to have a car that couldn't turn the wheel while the AC was on. I would have to turn the AC off while making a turn and then back on when I was driving straight. Also, neither back door would open more than a sliver and the paint was peeling off everywhere. Since then, all other car problems have seemed minor.

You know what annoys me? Daytime running lights. WTF do you need lights on during the day?

I can't go back to a car without keyless remote entry, daytime running lights, heated seats, and steering wheel radio controls. I can't, I won't.
