Surely the ass-fault explains the crack? Bitumen or concrete, it doesn't
matter to the bad earth bug, it'll get you in the (ass) end. Seriously,
the front lights earth on the inner guards and this is a notorious fail
point. And your dog rains? That must explain the poodles you keep walking
through.
Enough!

I doubt it ... the car was on concrete and asphalt during the whole thing.
The bad earth is in the backyard where the dog reigns. Of course you may
have a point, though ... perhaps I have an as-fault (asphault)?
