  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

I am really imporessed with the care Hyundai has thken to achieve low drag on the sedan.

We are currently experiencing the largest hatch of "Blunt" butterflies since 1951. These are very small, brown butterflies and they are everywhere in the 10s of thousands. . They tend to hover over roads in big clouds, often just off the pavement. I just drove 19 miles through the cloud and the condition of the car is amazing. I could see them by the hundreds being carried up over the car in the airflow.

I have dozens impaled on the blunt lower front of the car; no surprise there. I have none on the hood and perhaps 20 on the windshield. None anywhere else on the body.

A surprising thing is the outside mirrors. Each mirror has an area close to the body, the size of a golf ball, that contains hundreds of brown carcasses; the remainder of the mirror front is totally clean.
