Next week I'm taking the SDL out to play! Not to drive yet to early, but I need to bring it to the tire shop to mount the new super wide Yoko's. I'm going to wait to drive it every day until like the 1st or 2nd week of April, unless the Jetta dies in the mean time; pretty good chance of that happening...
But on the way back from the tire shop I'm going to crank up the music, and blast down I95 at 120mph thanking the Lord that I am in a real car again. OMFG its going to be the absolute best to drive a proper car again. RWD, diesel engine under the hood, three pointed star on it. No longer will I be in the small exposed tin can, driving the Jetta on the highway sucks. Everyone is bigger and faster than you.
I can't wait to be in a REAL car again! The thunk of the doors, climate control, having comfortable seats, an arm rest, leg room, good sound system, good brakes, etc, etc.
Not having driven a MB in a few months makes me appreciate how good they are! Chances are after blasting down the highway I'll just say screw it and call the junkers and have them tow the VW away.
