Return from Parole

New rental

I usually ask for a Toyota Camry at the rental car pickup at the Atlanta Airport. But they were out on my return. This was the only thing they could get for me short of an SUV. I figured that this would be fun and maybe more economical.

It has a big engine, I can say that much. It handles pretty good. Long hood, low riding, and the rear seat is a joke, the dashboard rattles terribly, the speakers are blown, and it used almost a 1/8 tank of gas just to get from the airport to the hotel. I could see the needle moving as I drove. I wasn't driving like a NASCAR-wannabee either.

More evidence that I'm growing old...knocking a sports (sporty?) car for its gas mileage! When I get my Camaro back up and running, what will I think of it?
