The new ones are even bigger than that.
I think about all the things we could have done, all the miracles we could have achieved, if we were all just a little bit better than it turns out we are.

True. And this one appears to be a short box. Imagine a full size.

Filled up the tank yesterday and got worse gas mileage.

Got tired of the door handle digging into my leg, then my temp strap didnt really cut it. Have a permanent solution now that doesn't bother me.

Little overkill, but kind of goes with the theme. Ill do brake lines in the same color next.

Re: Cappuccino - Not only a beverage, but an interesting Japanese Kei Car

Yep I'm on board with that as well.

Update:
Ok this one is a little weird. As you all know I have been DD'ing my Cappy to work. Well while I'm in my office working today, someone took it upon themselves to find the owner of my car outside. There are 3 buildings that share the parking spaces, so i guess he came looking. He asked out receptionist "Who's Suzuki Cappuccino is that outside. Do they work here?" She let him know that yes they do work here and was there and issue. Luckily there wasn't, but when asked if he wanted to talk to the owner, he said yes.
So i got to talk with a complete stranger (nice enough guy in his 40's) about my car while in my office during work. So odd... :d ontknow:

In driving the Cap as a DD I run into a dilema. Do i drive with the top down and enjoy the breeze, or leave it on and let the small AC try to keep things cool. Both work, but I do not like having to tear down the roof each time and methodically put it in the trunk.
Enter car umbrella window shade.

Decided to try my hand at it, but in a slightly different way...


Would have to say that it mostly works.

Speaking of throwing shade...

My front bumper is only to the middle of his wheel.

That's a great idea for the roof. Looks like it'd be pretty hard for it to blow away too.

Yea, it doesn't seem to be too bad. Corners are tightly pressed in place and I have it anchored to a full SS water bottle. Probably would help to roll up the windows though.

I honestly was surprised I hadn't tried this earlier.
Then the boys blocked me in....lol.
