If Stewie wuz a car that anybody could drive, 'wouldn't none'uv us be drawn to it guys.
Stewie requires . . no. Strike that. Stewie demands that you take the time to familiarize yourself with it.
Let me activate the disclaimer ray n' say that this followin' is personal opinion:
If anyone could drive it, I wouldn't wannitt n' would be lookin' for somethin' else that required skill n' attentiveness to drive.
What draws us (okay . . . what draws me) to Stewie is it's cuttin' edge handlin'. Ma Honda didn't get that handlin' by manufacturin' yet another transportation pram. Makin' use of the edge (without plantin' you n' your shiny new ride in the landscape) cannot be accomplished without the aforementioned skill and attentiveness. The attentiveness is a no brainer, but the skill requires familiarization n' practice in large, regularly applied doses.
N' get this: ain't none of it gonna be got on a website.
It's gonna be gained by jumpin' in'a driver'z seat n' goin' out in the dry n' learnin' where your, n' Stewie'z limits are.
It's gonna be gained by goin' out in the rain n' doin' the same thing. Each outin'll get you more experience n' closer to your personal edge.
But to go out thinkin' tha'cher gonna jus' jump innitt n' drive it like you drove some lesser vehicle?
If ya tried that I'd bet that you'd probably think that it's scary.
(Welcome ta the world'a the Driver'z Car guys.You've chosen wisely. Now ya godda follow through.)
Be well,
Java
