    Quality post!

    I suggest admin sticky MW's answer.

    “Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything - all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important.”
    “And most important, have the courage to follow your heart & intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”

    The key thing is whether MW steps on his brake when he off his radio and his aircon. For safety reason i think he should.

    Yah, step brake.

    Long time ago during the E46 time, many had gearbox loud clunk sound whenever they tried to shift the gear to P straight from D or R. So I cannot remember who said its best to put to N 1st then pull handbrake, then to P. A few of us tried that and it worked and no more clunk sound. So this practice stuck on me since then. Maybe now new cars no need liao
