Are you saying there is no issue regarding your driveway and cars
scraping? All of this was just an academic exercise?

No, I haven't seen your driveway, but I have seen mine, and EVERY car
scrapes going either direction. The problem is not that cars are not
built to fit everyone's driveway, but that driveways are not built to fit
some cars.

The fact that my driveway was built by an idiot would not keep me from
buying the automobile I want. If necessary, I can always have my driveway
regraded and repaved to fit the car. That is a lot cheaper than living
with a less than satisfactory automobile.
