the affair

This morning I took my car in for the floor corrosion repair. Since they will have it for longer than a day, they supplied me with a loaner. I was thrilled just not to be sent away with a frickin' Chevy Metro. But I did not expect a 2006 Toyota Rav4. At first I was a bit nervous, as the thing is way huger than my sweet little Echo. But once I got it on the road, I was quite satisfied by the smooth ride. Could this be love? I'm afraid to find out the gas mileage.

I have liked the Rav4 for some time now. They look nice.

You'd be surprised...some SUVs actually get decent gas mileage...and either Honda or Toyota make a hybrid SUV. Honda I think.
