Jim is actually probably a gentler driver than I am...so I'm not really worried...but I still am gonna miss my van. For one thing, with all the stoopid big snowbanks on the corners here, you can't SEE in a little car. I hadn't realized how bad I'd had it until I got Van-sama and suddenly could see OVER those banks.
On the other hand, the car is so small and light and low that it feels like driving a go-cart or sumpin. Kinda fun in a way...though it doesn't feel as secure...
