I enjoy the potholes..... The way the car goes in and come out

Also enjoy blasting the horn in traffic

billy187:
Well, funny thing- I can't really put a finger on it. But then I prefer getting around by driving my jalopy much more to being driven around in an S Class.

Perhaps it's the content I feel from having absolute control over a metallic one tonne monster that feeds on dead dinosaurs and is propelled by little explosions.

Please try to get a drive in a proper car with auto transmission.

Many modern automatics are actually faster than the manual equivalent model.

It's not true... manual transmission is usually faster than automatic. just that most new cars with monstrous engines come with auto transmission. if such cars can come with manual transmission, only then will u understand what speed means

MsDelilah:
I love speeding. You can never catch me driving slow, except the car is faulty.

I enjoy driving in traffic. I know, weird. But It's always fun cutting in front of other drivers, switching lanes.

I love the mental work involved: "would I fit in between those two cars? Can I quickly overtake before that trailer gets close" etc..

Best of all, I love long drives. Nothing beats cruising while blasting Yanni, or Bone Thugs, or Rihanna in your car.

dukeolumde:



Ur simply crazy...
Anyways u just described me in ur write up but I hardly play Yanni. About NFS, I did Lagos to Owerri in 4 & half hrs(fastest time 4 me).
About ur description of "TURBO"....ur simply crazy but am sure u will love me on wheels...

By the way, I love Benz, Range, Zlatan, Hamilton, Michael Shumacher and Siberian Husky. They can make any grown man smile...

Not many people enjoy Yanni's songs. My dad's driver usually tells him "Oga, please make we no play Yanni today. The songs dey make me sleep. Lmao!

I'd definitely love you behind the wheel! You're a fast driver. And I love the fact you love Hamilton, Schumacher, my boo Zlatan, dogs, and my favourite make of car Mercedes-Benz!!!

Can't wait to buy my W140. Then, we'd race!!!

You guys really need to expand your horizon. The smartphones in your hand is not limited to Nairaland only.

https://www.edmunds.com/fuel-economy/five-myths-about-stick-shifts.htmlif that modern engine of same engine could be in manual transmission, my bro u will forget auto. Well it's a known fact, not everybody knows how to drive manual gears

"It's no loss, says Ken Hill, a professional racer, driving educator and vice president of operations for Automotive Adventures in Bellevue, Washington. "Some people are stuck on the mindset that a driver is faster with a manual box," Hill says. But there's a reason why some major performance-car manufacturers, including Ferrari and Jaguar, no longer offer traditional manual transmissions, he says. "They just aren't as good." "

Most modern automatics are faster than manuals. Same car, same engine.

mejai:
in my life I have never heard someone love driving and playing yanni. u melt my heart. not to talk of blasting Yanni. wish u could give me a ride. am a die hard yanni fan (driving with it too)



U just said my mind in all u wrote.

I grew up listening to Yanni. Have over 13 of his albums.

You can never not see a Yanni CD in my car.

jessica042:
i so dont like driving....my leg always aches...but its convenient

Aquariann:
I love the fact that I'm not a passenger

I love (long) road trips.

Driving in the rain. The wipers (moving at the 2nd/3rd speed) has an effect on me I can't explain.

The feeling I get when downshifting from 5 to 3 to overtake (long vehicles) is only next to having an orgäsm. The sound of the engine at the point.... OMG

Switching lanes while using my trafficators accordingly as I overtake left and right (on a dual carriage highway). Abuja-Kaduna highway in the evening comes to mind.

The mental calculations I make before overtaking on single carriage roads. I particularly enjoy this on the ever busy and tricky Lafia-Akwanga road.

Listening to fuji/soukous/rock/highlife on a road with plenty (moderate)'potholes and patches as I change lanes knowingly e.g katsina-ala--Yandev stretch of k/ala-Makurdi road.. Keffi-Kachia road with those daredevil Opel Vectra guys giving a hot chase.
