It's gone, or in this case, away from it for a week.

Had to travel to Charlotte for work this past week and picked up a rental. I usually try to keep the cost down for my employer, and opted for the step up from super super basic (or so I thought).

While this death trap on 13"s was great on gas (spent under $5 all week), it almost got me killed multiple times. I love my LS, and sometimes take for granted how much of an amazing piece of machinery it is and how great my ride is every day. I am finding excuses this weekend to take her out for a cruise. Spark rekindled.

I have never even seen one of these before

Mazda 1.5 ??

The Mazda 6 is a fair ride. But this lil box is definitely what I would call economy

Hahahahaha! I've seen many of those (economy box) before and I definitely know you missed your LS that week. The LS is truly a fine automobile that you will love to drive and own. The LS is the best car I've ever owned.

It was a Mazda 2. I have been in a 3 and 6, and they are 1000x better than 2. It was shaking going down the highway at 65 and god forbid I pulled out in front of someone a quarter mile away.

I always hate getting into a rental, especially when it is something like that. I have now owned my LS for a couple weeks and have ridden with a friend the other day and it really is the small things that really make the car. Things that I have quickly become used to and immediately miss when gone.
