wild yeep
Folks who have known me entirely too long for their own good might be amused to take note of the following lab vehicle:
It is almost as old as my old yeep, and has just as many problems with the air conditioning, power steering, brakes, windows, engine, and oil - but it is also just as responsive as my old warhorse once was. In fact, when I first made its acquaintance, I was not completely certain that it was not my old beast. It would have been fitting and appropriate for us to have found one another thousands of miles from where we last parted ways.
For such a lunker of a car, it handles pretty well - and could probably manage any exit that the highway might provide.
