truck
the other day I was driving on the interstate and hit a huge tire tread left by some raging semi truck (i'm sure). Anyways, I realized upon later inspection of my car that it did some very noticeable damage to my rear bumper. Now, my insurance company sets me up with a collision repair place and even covers most of a rental car should i need one. Well, when I was picked up by the Enterprise lady this morning (in her Kia...thank God i didn't get that) she told me she didn't have the kind of car that was covered on my policy so they upgraded me for free. Unfortunately that means I got a huge truck. i hate it. I've never felt more like a hick than when driving down the road in a 05' Silverado. The control is rediculous. You turn the wheel and seconds later, the vehicle responds, rocking back and forth as you make a really wide turn. Oh, and hopefully nothing small, say...a child, bike, dog, car, is anywhere near you b/c visibility has been forefitted for such luxuries as four doors, sitting ten feet high, and the ability to carry something as large as a tractor in the bed. So beware, I will be driving a monster truck until Friday.
