The Friday Five
Apr. 9th, 2021 08:14 am1) Do you like to drive?
I really do... The jobs I've had for the last 17 years or so, have all been 'on the road' jobs, rather than in an office, or just one location. Long-Suffering Partner loves to drive as well, but fortunately, she's a much better passenger than me. Whenever I'm in the passenger seat for too long, I get bored & don't know what to do. That's when I start doing things like pretending to fall out of the door... on the highway...
2) Do you own (or have regular use of) a car? What kind is it?
I've always had a car. The first one I owned was a Suzuki Sierra. My favourite was a V8 Ford sedan & our current one is a Hyundai Tucson AWD
3) What is your favorite optional feature on a car?
4-wheel drive... or powered windows that can all be controlled by the driver
4) How much does gasoline currently cost where you live?
Premium diesel is currently about AUD$1.30 per litre. For USA readers, that translates to about a quarter of a gallon, so roughly AUD$5.20 per gallon?
5) What is the longest car trip you have taken?
In 2012 L-SP & I hired a Ford Escape in San Francisco & drove it to New York City via 26 States. Total miles: 6,900... or 11,104 kilometres. Told you I like driving!!
