I don't like my car, BUT...

[Major Fallout]

I don't really like my car, its boring.
It does everything I want it to and it keeps doing it, never really complaining about things. Its asks asks for very little a service every so often, it likes the odd drink but its still cheaper than pubic transport.
It even tries its best to help as much as it can, auto lights, auto gearbox, auto wipers, auto most things. All I ever have to do is tell it when to stop, go and point it in a direction.
But thats the problem, its boring. I feel like some sort of soft fleshy temperamental bit inside a computer.



BUT... Today for some reason it all clicked, I felt like it stepped back and trusted me for the first time in 3 years. It pulled harder and did everything I wanted it to at exactly the time i needed it to.
(Yes I realise how stupid I sound)



So can anyone else back me up on this? Do you have good days and bad days with inanimate emotionless objects?

I only ever find this if the car is a daily drive, with a 'toy' car it's always love, not matter how much it lets you down.

What car? The BM 6??


I have this on occasion.

Sometimes I'm on it - right mood, frame of mind etc. The usual sign for me is when I double declutch from 4th into 3rd for a bit of engine braking before a corner, the 'box sort of sucks the gear stick in, hunkers down and just gets on with it.

I do enjoy driving my car

This pubic transport sounds intriguing...

Go on...

Occaisionally, but I just leave her at home and go for a drive.

I have an on going argument with the stereo in my Toyota.
I don't always want to listen to music while driving but when I do we seem to have to agree on the cd otherwise it spits it back out. I should really buy a new stereo.
