UPDATE ON THE LOANER CAR:
My car was not ready as expected on Thurs. Nor was it ready Friday. Note the lack of surprised expression on my face.
:face devoid of surprise:
Anyway I went to the dealership anyway and said, "take this POS Discovery off my hands!". They said the only thing they had was a Miata Protoge. I said fine.
I drove off leaving some very puzzled looks. "Why would you want to exchange a Discovery for a *Protoge*?!". I told them I had never been privileged to drive such a poor handling, uncomfortable POS... and I've driven a Fiat Punto so that's saying a lot.
SUV Hatrz rule!

John,
I am proud of you!
Did you get the Protege5, or maybe even the MP3 coupe?? I think Mazda actually did a commendable job on these cars. A basic protege probably won't be too exciting. Better than a land yacht tho', eh?
