So we need to drive up to LLBean in Maine this weekend, and at 45MPG I could be there and back using just 4.5 gallons, or I could use up 10 gallons of gas. So today I find myself hoping that it does snow tonight so that I have an excuse to use 10 gallons. I am keeping my eye on the weather report, watching for a little idea on the weather, looking to push that cold weather down and the clouds up.
Do you look for ways to drive your Ridgeline even when you know you shouldn't? Do you look for errands to run that you just don't need to run? Do you just go out and sit in your car and listen to the radio when you have a very expensive stereo system in your house? Do you find ways to make your Ridgeline the only logical vehicle to drive even when it isn't?
I can say I have been guilty of these, and I am sure there are many more. My wife tries to protect me from myself. When I sort of mention driving my Ridgeline, she was like you want to drive your truck up to Maine. Of course I said probably not, but she knew better. Maybe when I am away from my truck for a little while for winter vacations it will wear off but I know when I was out on my cruise I kept thinking "I hope my truck is doing okay at the port of Miami".
