    Wow, that's a lot of driving. Makes me feel grateful that I live on an island 60 miles across...

    I have a stack of crazy goth/horror punk and metal CDs (Murderdolls, Michale Graves, Wednesday 13, Dimmu Borgir, Dethklok, GWAR, Charlie Drown, Behemoth) all in the passenger seat and floorboard...which probably is really interesting when I have to loan my car to 1 or 2 of the more wholesome ladies that work here.

    Re: how bad is the passenger side?

    Passenger seat contains a clipboard holding my mileage log sheets and a pen, floor contains 12 rocks from the hotel in Chicago when I went to training and was away from my family for 12 days, because I'm a sentimental prick, and I haven't put them in my garden yet because I'm astonishingly lazy when it comes to anything that's not work.
    But the car is a lease, so I have to *try* to take better care of it than my previous vehicle.

    Re: how bad is the passenger side?

    My safety tag is expired and I cant renew it because in my passenger side seat, an airbag sensor is broken.
    I brought it to the dealer a few days ago and the guy behind the counter said that even if the sensor was covered by warranty, It wouldn't apply because I had my clipboard on the seat at the time. He said anything left on the seat can break the sensor. I KID YOU NOT. I said, where am I supposed to keep my clipboard?? He said in the backseat, like a normal person. I laughed in his face and walked out 120$ poorer. My car remains illegal at this point.

    you are waaayy much more calm than i would be.
    without hypothetical details of how i would handle it, lets just say i would DEFINITELY have been arrested for property damage before that day was out.
    Kudos man, i don't do well with insane stipulations and BS.

    200 to 250 miles a day is average. It's 80 miles from one end of my territory to the other. =^..^=
    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

    I take out my anger by running. Lots of running.

    Honestly it's my fault for buying a KIA. You get what you pay for. I'm already looking for a new car that can handle a clipboard in the passenger seat.

    I was thinking a Focus hatchback. I even looked at a Chevy Volt hatchback. We shall see.

    I constantly hold stuff down around corners and when braking. Should get that under control seeing that i had an accident because of that before.
    One volatile salad with dressing and a fork a 1L glass bottle, the clipboard a cookie tin with all kind of stuff in and a oversized smartphone.
    And then all the bits and pieces and boxes on the back seat.
    Sudden unexpected braking does not help.
    Glad technology got rid of the map book.

    Red ginseng root extracts work for staying awake.
    If you start nodding off, stop and sleep for 15min.
    Power naps really work.
    Whatever
