    Know the neck strain thing! Bet it feels good though to have that fresh air and the safety of two doors!

    "I've even given up wearing sunglasses at night when I drive around town. Not only were they making it a little difficult to see well, but I figured out I was probably looking like an idiot to motorists around me.........."Look at that guy trying to be cool and even wearing sunglasses at night!! :LOL"

    Don, being a motorcycle rider, I've accumulated a large collection of riding glasses, some of them cost over $100, but I keep going back to glasses my son turned me on to back in 1999. The absolute best (and cheapest) glasses that I ride with are actually safety glasses you can pick up for $6-7 at a welding supply store. They are the Uvex Bandits. They have interchangeable lens which are only about $3-4 each. I keep a pair of smoked lens glasses for daytime riding and a pair of both clear and amber lens glasses for night time riding. Give a pair of these a shot, I'll bet you like them.

    BTW, it is really cool to see your own car going down the road, as long as it's not being stolen.........LOL.

    Don, talking about seeing your car going down the road brings a couple of memories back to me, one was when I was a kid, and I had a 55 Chevy, my buddies car was broken down so I let him take me home, and use my car to go to his house. I told him when he got what he needed to come back to get me and I would take him to get his car. Well after what seemed like a long time to me I started walking towards his house, which was about 2 miles. As I got on a straight run of highway I saw in a distance my car but instead of him making a left turn which he would have meet up with me, I see my car turning right going away from me I was pi**ed.

    When I would come home on leave from the Army in the 60’s going through city’s I would look to my left and watch my car in the windows of the buildings with the glass fronts. I guess most young guys have done that a time or two.

    Your car looks good going down the highway. It’s nice when someone appreciates your car and gives the thumbs up; it’s really nice when they are driving a Mercedes, or some other expensive car. It was for me when I would drive my 55 Chevy to visit with my daughter when she was getting ready to have our first grandchild.
