    I appreciate my car more now.......

    My car has been in the shop for the latest 2.5 weeks getting some body work repaired. Been driving a Nissan Altima 2.5S rental for all that time and when I got my car back today it felt great.

    Nothing like driving a rental for a couple of weeks to make you appreciate what you have.

    Things I missed most were simple things like not having music controls on steering wheel, no Ipod integration, no navigation, no traction control....

    That being said the Nissan Altima is not a bad car for $20k... Much better than the Chevy Impala they gave me initially that I returned after 1/2 a day.

    Congrats I guess, on letting everybody know every small thought that comes into your brain

    We've all been there... I assume you have mirrors in your home? Talk to them?

    Music controls on steering wheels and Ipod integration in a car will not make us think you are rich.

      I post so people like you have something to respond to. It is very important that you think I am rich, that's why I stay in business, to impress people like you !

        its quite the opposite for me...

        my car went into the dealership to get its winter tires on and an engine checkup

        and this is the rental they gave me for a few days:

        a 2011 lexus rx350 .... fucking nice car

        brand new with only 450 kilometers on it haha

        its going to be a downgrade getting back my car

                      the 450 is the LX, it is much bigger then the rx. The rx is a smaller SUV/Crossover.

                        I felt the same way after driving a ford flex for 1000 miles on a trip to shoot... when I got back in my cts v coupe I was blown away

                          RX 450h - only RX you can buy here at the moment. Doesn't seem to be a LX on sale in the UK.


                          Edit/ just found a picture of a LX450 and it looks like a 15year old Land Cruiser.

                            That would be smart as hell if dealerships lent out nicer new model cars to people, I wonder how many of them buy after their long ass "test drive"
