Does the way your vehicle runs affect your mood?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:Absolutey. My car (like everyone else’s) runs better in cooler temperatures. Each gulp of air the engine takes contains more oxygen and results in more efficient combustion. Smaller inputs from the throttle are needed to get the desired response. Cooler weather also means that chassis and suspension bushings are slightly harder. This results in better road feel and in this case, better responses to steering input and better communication through the wheel. Cooler temperatures mean that the brakes work with greater efficiency as well. The already incredibly tactile shifter feels even more direct. I have a laptop connected to my engine’s CPU through the OBD2 port under the dash. I can make small adjustments to the fuel/air ratio. With experimentation I can get what might seem like tiny performance gains. But no matter how small these improvements they manifest themselves as a tangible sensation. Life is short, your time is precious. Your clothes, your food, your transportation: These are all things you must contend with on a daily basis anyway. Why shouldn’t they be as much of a source of pleasure and satisfaction as you can afford?
