This is Ladybug. I am - so far (and I realize it's been less than 24 hours, and I've driven maybe 12 miles total) very happy. The car handles well. It has a comfortable ride. And it fits in my garage, though I may find myself resorting to the old trick of hanging a tennis ball from the rafters at the point where I should stop the car (where the ball is touching the windshield) so that I don't risk smacking the back wall of the garage like I did a few times with Eggbert).
And the Sirius radio is most excellent. It occurs to me that I will be a much happier, more relaxed, and more PATIENT driver if I can listen to classical music in my car. (Which tells me that maybe taking out a subscription, when my 6 month trial is up, will be worth it to me).
Driving home after piano lesson, "Morning, Noon, and Night in Vienna" came on. And it just felt right. It made me so happy. (I really, really missed not having a classical station that I can access other than when I'm at the computer...I am coming to realize that now).
Say "hello," Ladybug:
I also feel somehow that Mike Rowe would be proud of me. And that makes me happy, too.

Very purty! (my iPod tried to autocorrect that to 'putty' :)
I like it. And the name.
[sigh] A red car... I've never had a red car.
I think it's so cute that you name your cars. We've never named a car on purpose but we've had several that, somehow, acquired names.
Most Sirius channel packages run $12 to $17; I think the maximum is $20 a month. Trini certainly thought it was worth it.
Whew - that is one candy apple red car! Very nice. Have you considered using that color for your blog?
I got a 10 Euro adapter for the casette deck on my car and can now plug in my IPod, yeah!
Ladybug is quite the babe.
