Test Drive

We were chatting about new rides last night. I want a Lincoln Navigator. I’ve never driven one, but I like the looks. It’s a dream for another day as my little green Escape is a happy transport for now and easy on the gas. And I like the color.

So, what would be important in a test drive of a new vehicle? Any car I would consider must be driven on the road leading to my house and my daughter’s. Awful streets. The expansion joints are nasty bumps and the potholes patched up so poorly it wasn’t worth the time or effort. The second necessary test – putting on lipstick while driving. It’s a consistent habit I have acquired, usually beginning the process at the bottom of our road.

If a motor vehicle can pass these two exams, it will be in the running!
