So, I finally got my car back on Wednesday. The brakes seem to work pretty much the way they used to, although I can't help feeling they are a little looser. The dealership fixed them twice, so I guess they're not going to work any better than they do. The steering wheel is centered once again, which makes me happy.

The loaner they gave me was a Ford friggin' Expedition. It was the smallest car they had available at the time. I'm actually pretty comfortable driving a big vehicle, because when I was a kid my dad used to make me drive his work van all the time. So, I got to cruise around in my tank for a day. I don't know why anyone would want to drive something that big all the time. I was much happier to back in my little tiny Civic.

The best part, though, is that after driving the Expedition for one day, I had to put ten dollars worth of gas in it. That's just insane.
