More like Chicago or Philadelphia.my best friend is a cop and he's never been shot at. the 4 responding officers also stated that they have only seen innocents caught in cross fire a handful of times in their career. they never said if they were all okay or not, but I like to think that they are. I look at this as a 1 in a million event. But Alberta is just North Texas.
one last note... if you don't already, i suggest weed. you can get a medical script for some incredible shit with your diagnosis and you will never have any flashback nightmares, and the "background" anxiety that PTSD patients carry is a thing of the past when you're high.
it's the only thing in the world that helps with hangovers. Weed is the only thing that settles my stomach so i can actually eat food/drink water without puking it back up again. and it'll do it in <5 minutes, from the moment you take the first puff.
I love weed
Wow. Crazy story.
At least you know what cars you like, I mean based on the fact that you've had lots of flavors to try. You'll love the R. One of the most complete cars you can spend money on. It's a dream to own and drive one.
Is that from living in West Philly?
Congrats! I guess lol. I mean only because it was pretty shitty situation in order to get you here.
I bet you won't miss the sunroof.
With the 2019 GLI I didn't miss it already.... I could rarely use it! Highway speeds if you have it vented it whistled like a bastard and the wide open anything over 40kph it was so loud you couldn't hear yourself think. Then there was all the constant rattles with it! drove me crazy. I'll miss the extra light into the cab. I'll miss it because I love sunroofs... but I think I'll enjoy the better fit and finish much more!
Even my wife was noticing the small things on our test drive, like the carpeted door pockets for example. She always made fun of me because her 2007 GLI felt better built inside than my 2019. hell it has/had less rattles than my 2019!!
This is interesting. We just got a 2020 Tiguan with the pano roof, and it's one of the quietest / sturdy feeling sun roofs I've ever had in a car.
my 2015 GTI was amazing actually and I was hoping for similar performance. Ripping through the rocky mountain highways with that thing wide open and no noise at all. that car never rattled either.
the problem with the bigger sunroofs are that they introduce extra body flex, especially when it's open, and especially in the spring months when your coming out of the cold winters. seems to be a common problem along a lot of vehicles going to the bigger roofs.
