It is bitter cold here this morning, and even with the sun shining it's damned cold. I'm sooo glad i re-scheduled my garage door install! Next Tuesday it's supposed to be in the 50'sF, and that's my new install date!!

I need a kick of motivation...I have none. Need to get going on my income taxes here soon :o I dread it more every year, but fortunately they get easier every year, as I have less and less income.

Todays biggy though....tracking down a slacker insurance agent! Who also works as a used car salesman...how fitting!

Was about to call it 2 days. My good fortune, JOKE, reared it's ever comical head. My dog scratched on my back door to present a half consumed rabbit he obviously just caught. Time for the swim trunks and a bath for both of us. Cujo meets Carrie type mess.

Choking down as much of this Northern Lights fattie as I can first. 003.jpg

I kind of like the white...My pickup is white also. And my current Honda is the steel metallic so I'm ready for a different color.

I'm bummed that they only put navagation in the touring trim now...But I do have a good phone so I could probably get by on android auto.

I was test driving a few SUV's when covid hit, and the Hyundai Sante Fe I liked the best of what I drove....but I have not driven a Honda yet. I drove Subaru's, Cadillacs, Buicks, and more. I am way past due for a car...Never in my life have I kept the same car so long and I don't even love it.

It's great when you have a car you love.

Freakin' insurance agent never did call back...at least he's consistent. Very odd!

Isn't the Sante Fe a seven passenger car? I really like the blind spot cameras in the dashboard that Hyundai is doing. IMO the infotainment system is the weakest link in the crv. Nothing has changed since 2017

2023 is going to be a full redesign, it kind of looks like a rav 4

Just being my curious self from a further point of view. Is entertainment not a distraction meant for the home and dangerous on the road? And from my frugal side I still why cars are considered status symbols. Tools in my world. And if you haven't master one? Why the shinier? All all allowed to go A to B at the same rate of speed and very people every truly four wheel drive. And no disputes. Just a chance to look at the logic of selling points of modern vehicles from a wana be minimalist.

Power went out around 3am just came back about 30 minutes ago. LOL just after I made some tea and ramin noodles for breakfast on my camp stove.

I better go put some more wood on the fire. And get to my morning burn ;)

I don't find it a distraction, it's not like you can watch movies and a bunch of the features are disabled once the car is in gear. Turn by turn navigation shows up on the dashboard as well as the infotainment system so you don't have look down to use it. I don't look at it as a status symbol, I mean a crv isn't really much to look at compared to shiny new mercedes. This was the first new car I've owned. All previous cars were hand me downs that were beat to death long before I started driving them.
