My philosophy when driving the Fit, "I'll catch them in the corners." The only car I've never been able to catch in the corners have been Miatas.

Dennis, good to hear from you. Glad to know you are still "minding the store" here on FF. I am still enjoying my poser-mobile. However, I'm about to put a piece of black tape over the TMPS light.
