PSA: TREAD not THREAD
Just a little rant, but it really gets to me when people talk about tire tread and spell it thread - Tires are not stitched or woven together! It is TREAD and NOT THREAD.
You can now return your to your normal day...

+1 Since the 350 was produced in Japan, it should be Zed.

I am just making a point that it's annoying to hear "Zed" when Z sounds so much sexier

Thank you for this thread. I am somewhat of a grammar ***** and I really can't stand the twototootherethey'retheirbreakbrakethenthan etc crap. For me it is difficult to write or type a word without thinking about the meaning of that word, so I couldn't really write "it's to hot outside" because in that instance "to" doesn't make any sense.
