Re: Why so many wrecked Crossfires?
Is that why there are so means Crossies in Florida ? No rust and no attrition. Long time ago that Florida uses a lot of crushed sea shells in the tarmac which does wear tires but also provides very high traction.
We do get "Florida Ice" particularly at intersections where condensate from the ACs mixes with road dirt and oil and in a frog strangler those still moving generally have their blinkers on.
Originally I was concerned about the wide Contis on my Crossfire in a downpour but they have worked very well so far.
Of course there are always candidates for Darwin awards.
