Pure Joy
Today, I took my Crossfire out of the garage and drove it to work. It is not a nice day, very foggy but the temperature is going to rise to 11 degrees (52F). It has been stored for 4 months! I had it out for a brief time on Saturday but we had snow yesterday.
I had forgotten what a joy it is to drive this car fast, to feel it accelerate so promptly when I touch the gas. I drove only slightly above the speed limit but it was so much fun driving to work, listening to Stevie Ray Vaughn, I can't stop smiling.
I have been driving a 91 Jeep Cherokee all winter. Nobody lets you merge when you are in a Jeep. In the Crossfire, people slow down very quickly to let me slip in, it was quite a pleasant change.
I love my car....
