This test is based on how cool you were in High School - for example, what crowd you ran with, etc - and then somehow does this highly convoluted calculation (seemingly only matched in its convoluted-ness by this sentence... not one of my finer grammatical moments... sorry, I digress) taking into consideration a few simple details of your current situation, to determine how cool you are now.
Click here to see if you're still cool.

Understanding Independent Suspension
I'm sure you have heard the term,"INDEPENDENT FRONT SUSPENSION," but may not know exactly what it means.
When one front wheel of a vehicle hits abump or pothole, it will moveup or down to compensate while the other wheel remains steady. Both wheels are independent of each other, hence that expression.
Watch the attached video, a German commercial for the NissanPathfinder,to find out exactly how this works. This gives a moving experience which should benefit your understanding of this piece ofengineering
