Hi, my name is suri, and I... love my car.



It's silly, and it's sad, but it's true. Picked Darcy up this afternoon after a ten day stay at the babysitter's dealer's (he had to have the gas tank replaced -- thank god the warranty was still in effect!) and getting back into the driver's seat was...

well, it was like coming home.


Mind you, the loaner car I had during that time was very nice (a brand-new A3 hatchback), but the difference in driving was noticable: the A4 is just still a better car. Plus, Darcy has lumbar support in the seats. Ahhhhh.....


I know, I know, there are some of you who Don't Get It. Fine. More road for the rest of us.

Go get a CD of "A Night At The Opera" and play Darcy "I'm In Love With My Car". He'll appreciate it. I do that to all my new cars.

Although I don't have a car, I love driving. I wish I could own a car so I could take long drives to interesting places.

Take it from someone doing without: There's nothing sad about loving your car.

I love my car, too. It's 21 months old.

I especially love the traction control -- no miniskids on wet leaves anymore!

You've got a big symptom of The Sickness, i.e. naming your car. I'm guilty of that too -- though I use titles rather than names. My first car was "The Silver Beast" (stole that from a James Bond book).

Has Darcy's air conditioning been fixed too? (It's never too soon to start planning the trip to Necon!)

[lagilman]

A/C has been fixed, yes. Not that this means I'm letting you guys into my car, after that last trip...

We'll be good kitties. Very good kitties.
