Nope.
I am fucking hungry. I was working late last night, so I didn't get any dinner, and when I got home, all I had the supplies for was a jelly sammich.
This morning, I was out of bread, so I just drank a bunch of ice tea. Luckily, Sawhney89 is going to get me some lunch when I teach him how to parallel park. My mom still has the digicam, so no embarrassing pics of him

We're gonna have to keep him in his Scooby, it's what he knows. If we started six months ago in the boat, he would be a champ. This is the day before the test, so I'm not going to switch cars on him.
I hope 4WD cars don't handle too differently turning at slow speeds. I have some FWD experience, but I've never ever driven a 4WD car.

2000 Scooby Legacy.
So, I drive it to the parking lot down the street. I needed to adjust the seat like crazy in order to fit properly. It seems to be designed for a smaller person. I am used to riding low, so I needed to move the seat all the way back and recline it a lot, and the short steering column isn't giving me as much control as I would like. Not to mention, the floor shifter takes some getting used to. It's a wonder why they don't use more column shifters, they're much better. It's a goofy gated design, which makes it really easy to miss D4 and put it in third.
But DAMN, that four wheel drive is NICE. I didn't try as hard as I could, but I did try, and I couldn't get my ass to slide out. There's soooo much traction. The car was leaning like crazy and I was doing things that would make the boat do a donut, and the scooby kept going. Fun little car.

Sawhney89 actually managed to take off one of those mudflap things on the back left wheel, and managed to almost hit my car a few times.
First I was being helpful, then I was trying to distract him so that he would be able to do it under pressure. I put on a variety of music while either sleeping or talking about something completely not related to driving or while singing along loudly.
He's alright at it. I'm gonna have to swing by after work and have him practice some more.
And, for the first time, one of my friends has dared to drive the boat (Only people who ever have driven it have been my parents and me, my mom put less than 100 miles on it and my dad put less than 250 on it). See, I told you that there's nothing to be afraid of.
