My car is vain
I swear I do NOT know where she gets this from as I am not a vain person.
My car seems to go out of its way to drive past reflective storefront glass and gaze at itself. Lil' gal also likes to *pose* and will park and then turn her wheels as if to say, look at me!
In my daily travels, there are 3 routes to take. She goes where there are several places to check herself out. Man, what is this about?
Whenever she pulls up next to a Cobalt, I could swear I hear her say," I might be like you underneath but outside I blow you away"
Next to a PT Cruiser? Well I wont repeat that as I don't want to use profanity.
She does not know the meaning of the word humble!

Brad,
I am the one that buys things that just arent quite right and although certainly not intentional, there is something a little squirrely. I do like this car alot. I have spent alot and will continue to add things to it. I was on the freeway twice this last weekend and got 29 MPG so I know it's not broke. It's my short trips that are killing my mileage. Acceptance of what I cannot change. I hope that as she gets more miles on her ( 3002 total as of this morning and is 6 months old! ) she will not drink so much.

It's nice to hear you sounding postive and upbeat! Also glad to hear you're seeing some 29 MPG. That's got to make you feel a bit better! Fear not. As it breaks in with more miles, those MPGs will increase. Mine have!
