This car has some doohickey called "brake assist" which keeps the car from rolling back on a hill.  Pretty cool.  I know it works, because I usually just let my car roll back out of the driveway.  This one I have to actually put it in reverse and back out of the driveway--it won't coast back even with the tranny in neutral.

2 things I'll never try to teach someone I care about and want to have a continuing relationship with......

-   How to drive

-   How to play golf

Nothing good can come of either.

    • Day 224: played 18. Got some stuff to work on. Hit some good shots though and made 2 birdies. 
    • I am in the market to buy a new or mint+ used driver. I am a high handicap player that usually uses Regular Flex Men's 10.5 degrees and I golf right handed. I can't shot shape the ball and have trouble always hitting the ball in the center of the face and it usually goes off to the right and out of play. I am trying to hit straight all the time so I can hit more fairways, also on off center shots I would like the ball to be in play so I don't sacrifice strokes all the time. I usually look for forgiveness, distance a little distance lost is ok if I am hitting more fairways then that is what i want, adjustable or non adjustable is fine, price is also a factor around 100 but under 300. I also need help getting the ball in the ball in the air and going higher. Any recommendations or other help when buying a driver are welcome and thanks
