Back Out Of The Saddle Again

We got the van back on Friday!
It's going back in this afternoon!
E-freaking-gad!
I picked the thing up after work on Friday, with the assurance that the computer system had been replaced, and that it had even been road tested for about 50 miles before being handed over to me. Now, either the thing is haunted and has it out for me in some way, or there's something deeply wrong with the car. I just called in to the shop a little while ago, and I could hear the exasperation in the guy's voice from hearing that there's still a problem. Once again, the car ekes along in 'limp mode'. Once again, I'm going to be driving something else for a while. To be honest, I don't mind so much. With gas prices as they are, I'm okay with getting something smaller that doesn't have such a large, guzzling tank. I look forward to the (maybe not so) distant future, when I'm driving something smaller full-time. I know we need the space now, with three kids and all, but it's nice to dream.
So far, I've had a Grand Prix, a Neon and a Stratus (not to mention borrowing my dad's GMC truck a couple of times). I wonder what it'll be this time? A Ford, perhaps? I'll let you know.
Dood, OMG, Craig is such a doofus! Seriously! Like, OMG, wtf is with that guy?! I totally pwn his ass! And I don't wanna even start about his girlie!
