Default a la mode

HOLY CRA*! I had left my car in winter mode and not driven it for a few days. Yesterday drove to some friends to watch football (that's 'mrican football) and was running late. Switched off winter mode and was reveling in how quick the car felt. Then switched to Dynamic and Sport and HOLY CRA*!!! This thing is unseemly fast! You kind of get used to it when you drive it in this mode everyday, but when you've been away and switch back you feel your head slam into the headrest and laugh out loud at the sheer lunacy of how quickly it accelerates and how tenacious it is on curving exit ramps. Thank God for power and how easily it corrupts.

Just experienced the same thing. It's been in the garage for most of the winter. Holy **** is right.

So when I jump back in my Explorer tomorrow I will be back to reality.

Every vehicle has a purpose......
