I <3 thenewlittlecar... It’s pretty, it feels soooo smooth to drive, it’s easy and fun to park, it makes an excellent jukebox-on-wheels, and it’s cute and did I mention pretty?
Just put gas in it for the second time, incidentally. First fill-up, I got about 31.5 mpg in mixed driving, which for a car with a lot more pep than the old Corolla and all kinds of power doo-hickeys isn’t bad, I don’t think.
Today’s fill-up averaged 33.5. Whether it’s the breaking-in process or just that I’m more used to driving it, I dunno, but that’s nice. Not as good as some of the sub-compacts I was looking at would probably get...but it doesn’t drive like a sub-compact.
OK, I’ll stop babbling now. But I could go on if prompted. Just warning.
Oh when the saints...
Greetings all. Here in the Crescent City. Spent the day hanging drywall.
The destruction and devastation here is amazing even after 2 1/2 years. But even with all we’ve heard it’s still such a complicated story.
Lot’s to think about more when I get back.
