quit on me. My inspection sticker was almost up and since I have to go to the dealer for that, I put off the wipers as long as possible. (The dealer is out of my way and I try to make as few trips as possible.) I had an appointment scheduled and it was raining that morning so I had to reschedule. I went yesterday and they diagnosed the problem. It was the switch. They didn't have the part and it was scheduled to rain today and tomorrow so they found a loaner for me. I walked out and had to laugh. They really know how to ruin it all for me. All my "I love not having a car payment" and "my car is perfect for me" was on hold when I stepped outside and saw the SUV they had for me. They do realize that's going to drive me nuts, right? Of course. It's a little one and is perfect for me... just like my car. Oh, but then there's that whole car payment issue that I LOVE not having. Oh well, one day I'll need a new car. When I do, it'll be this one.
Here it is.
One thing that bothers me is the whole ECO thing. The car turns off or goes into a standby mode when I come to a stop and starts back up when I let my foot off the brake. It's weird and I don't like it. I feel like I'm not in control. I'm also not fond of the gear shift. It's digital-ish and I'm having a hard time adjusting. And what's with the tea cup? I don't get that.
Maybe they'll be over that phase and will have gone back to normal when I get my silver one...
