On a cold quiet winter night as you lay down your head you can HEAR it *crunching noise* lol  :(
It's truly disgusting, especially when you see a few out-of-state cars that are almost unbelievably nice underneath. Driving through even south Jersey/DE/MD is like being in another world. And it makes me seethe with envy...
