But for whatever reason.. I look forward to driving it and it puts a smile on my face. Don't ask me to explain why, because I can't.
It just goes to show that reality can be very different from what the car mags tell us we should want.

There is nothing quite like the feeling of driving an unladen light 2WD pickup at high speed on a snow and slush packed frost heaved freeway in a strong variable-with-suddenness crosswinds in light snow with an empty windshield washer reservoir in the middle of the night.
I kind of enjoyed driving an old F250 around Lincoln last month. It's something different with its own benefits. Driving experience as we tend to think of it is not what it excels at, but it has its positive qualities for sure.
