The wife and I switched cars the last week for reasons not worth typing. She's on kid duty during the week, so she's been hauling him around to various places in the GTI. I commented the other day about liking the GTI but really liking driving the BMW too. She replied that she likes the BMW, but didn't find herself looking forward to getting it back. I think that's a good indicator of it's value as a small family car. That and it'll fit a full size stroller and supplies for a picnic.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth
