Driving a new car
is like holding a
newborn baby. You start feeling things you haven’t felt in a while and the next thing you know you’re fantasizing about how great your life could be with another one!
People get impressed because I drive a
Lexus. Often they fail to realize that I bought it used and now my car is twelve years old. I am generally pleased with it. It looks good and it’s reliable. I did have to take it to the dealer for
air conditioner repair a few weeks ago. Since this is the hottest summer in my memory, I need
air conditioning!
Other than the
air conditioner trouble I have had no complaints. That being said, I have car envy, big time.
Here's how the lust entered my heart. The dealer gave me a loaner car “for my convenience”. I think that it’s really for “my persuasion”. Driving the new car shows me that my new car is old. I’m not even a huge car girl. However, this loaner has the
new car smell. It accelerates quickly. It is as quiet as a
sewing machine and handles much better than mine.
It is just better. Before driving the loaner, I loved my car. Now, I think of it as “that jalopy”. Still, with everything new there is a bit of a learning curve.
The new car operates on a
keyless entry and ignition. It's great technology, but bad if you're not familiar with it. I left it running in the
parking garage twice without knowing it. Once I forgot where I had parked, was walking around the parking garage, pressing the panic button and cursing the new car because the panic button was doing absolutely nothing. Once I found the car and realized that it was on I realized that the panic button was ineffective because I had left the car on...
Fortunately, it was a hybrid, and still had a full tank of gas. Perhaps that's why they invented Hybrids to help harried working moms who struggle with technology???
