All the weird squaking and knocking sounds that come from under the car once in a while (or mile) just proof that the suspension is still there.
A new Lexus wouldn´t give me that feedback, so this is a feature as well ...

My door panels only need 2 clips to stay in place.
The fact that the rear hatch needs to be pushed down hard to lock is just a way to test my strength.
My warning lights aren't in sync with the dash board turn signals but that's just to remind me that nothing is perfect and it's okay

Having to slam the tailgate multiple times to get it to properly latch is just an exercise. My Volvo just wants to keep me active!

I think it's a way of life, a personal religion, teaches perseverance and keeps the body in shape
