Why I like small cars

I spend my day driving from house to house or office to office as the case may be. I can’t imagine doing my job with a large SUV or even a full size car.

I drive an older Honda Civic and I love it for several reasons.

1. It’s a Honda so it is designed for dependability rather than power – I don’t need a lot of power to drive the streets of Grand Junction.

2. It makes tight U turns. I imagine I pass the house or business that I am supposed to be going to about 10 times per week. I love being able to turn completely around on the average street.

3. I can reach almost any point in my car while driving. I can reach a disk in the back seat, a drink in the cup holder and the stereo all without looking away from the road.

4. I love getting over 30 miles per gallon.

5. I can steer with my knee while I type text messages and emails to Rick. Ok, I’m kidding about  this one…or am I?
