Never Mind . . It Fits!

Never mind that two days before Bryant leaves to take the truck and boat south, we are putting a starter in it.  Never mind that after 2 weeks of driving it around, the windshield wipers don't work unless I reconnect the wire under the hood each time.  Never mind that after the first 500 miles on its 42 gallon tank, that I run it out of gas when the gauge still said 1/4 tank and have to limp it to the neighborhood gas station a mile down the road.  Never mind that when I fill up the seats with middle school jazz band students, they can barely slam the door due to  body damage on the passenger side doors. Never mind that the heat control blower has two settings, off and high.

Why am I not worried about these "minor inconveniences" of driving around a $1500 vehicle?  Well, this past weekend I found out it fits!  Barely, but barely doesn't matter when the garage door closes.  It was absolutely wonderful to wake up Monday morning in 10 degree weather and have a frost free car.
