I need to consider whether I want to drop the car any farther than it is. That rubber piece is expendable but cracking lips every two months (due to poor judgment) would get expensive. I need to start being paranoid about clearance...
Welcome to cars.

I've been approaching driveways at angles greater than 45 degrees for over a decade now.

I think you meant 'welcome to sports cars'. Yeah, no kidding. I did exit at what I thought was a steep angle...one corner toward the other but in the end I just shouldn't have gone in there to begin with. I just hate parking my cars on the street.

I was checking the GPS location of my car this morning and it looks like it's out on a road test. That'd be good news.

I bought a Zoombak. I've found some cheaper alternatives since I purchased it so I'll switch to something else when the one-year subscription is done.

Zoombak was designed more for snoopy parents that want to monitor their kids, rather than just for theft tracking. The plus-side is that you can open a web browser and ping the thing whenever you are bored (I have an IT job, so that's altogether too often).
