Ah cars . My ES 1800 1970 Volvo stick shift was purchased by a Swedish car museum at 1989 . My Porsche Cayenne , 2006, automatic , will be twenty soon . MMM
Thanks for sharing this latest adventure. Glad you’re making progress on the memoir, but I was beginning to have withdrawal symptoms. Congrats on getting a new car & liking it! Looking forward to seeing you next week!
Hah! Love your automotive inventory! I learned to drive when I HAD to (suddenly incapacitation of then-husband), got a friend to drive me to the DMV and passed the test, I know not how. Figured if everyone else can do it, I can. The brave unawareness of youth!
Like your former self, it's easier for me to understand the virtues of the white bean tuna salad than a car--but, as always, I love the way you write. :--)
So nice to have you back...just go easy! Taking someone to help buy a car was essential for me evidently. I really only cared to see if the trunk would easily hold a 36" x 48" painting. My friend, Brian, reminded me that doing a test drive was pretty important too.
Nine years ago I bought a gray Subaru Imprezza, the first new car I've ever owned. It has served me well and I hope it will continue to for the rest of my life. I'm 80 now… I'm glad you are happy with your new car! Sarah

I relate to thinking subway, etc, were forever, and then I moved to New Mexico.

A good car is like a comfortable. "home", with privileges.
Ann, What is. "K-turn" ? Would loved to have had that orange Mustang. Got to eat fish now in place of beef, will try the tuna salad recipe.
Welcome back!!!!
