Loaner Envy

Since it'll take until Tuesday to fix Inga, Richard the Service Manager asks me to return the Fleetmobile so he can put me in one of his loaners. I'm thinking a Jetta. Lo and behold, this is currently sitting in my driveway:

DH, who drives an older Passat wagon, is greener than the car. I'm not trading in Inga anytime--love that tight suspension!--but this is a sweet ride. And the ignition gets major cool points. So I'm styling some serious German engineering until Tuesday. Could be worse. A lot worse.

Personal to Richard: Sorry those beers weren't cold, buddy. I'll hook you up when I get my car back.
