goblues38 Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 Have been on vacation. Put 2,600 miles on a rented Town and Country mini van the last week and a half. Drove my car to work this morning and had instant smiles. Nothing makes you appreciate a good automobile more than extended time in a bad one.

vinnievis Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 I agree! Ive always driven Junk for DD's and had fun cars, but I finally took the plunge on the SHO for a DD. Needless to say I still have the old 2005 Taurus that was a DD, and I hopped in that the other day. What a difference! I never thought it was great by any means, but I didnt think that it was that bad. The SHO just makes it seem that much worse! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griggs95 Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 I think everyone should drive a "pos" for a little while to really appreciate what you have. I think this is why I keep my 06 Taurus with an almighty...brace yourself......150 h.p v6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigPelo Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 I drove my wife Nissan Versa Sunday afternoon for a quick stop and go. I am glad those 10 minutes are over! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeB Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 I'm in the exact same boat as you, 12 days without my Taurus and just got it back today. It was at the dealer and they gave me a Dodge Avenger as a rental. Not a bad car, but I couldn't wait to get back in my SHO! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
