It sucks becoming an adult, when you forget to do things as simple as IMAGINE things that are not normal to you.
Here's something for you to think about:
My wife has bought 2 different Fiats.
The first one was a 500 sport, that we bought in September 2011.
We bought it in Texas, brand new, and had to drive it back to Colorado.
We took the interstate.
There were trucks, and SUV's, and everything.
We lived to tell the tale (I'm here, right now).
Then, in June of 2012, she traded in that 500 Sport for a 500 Abarth when they became available.
With that purchase, she was given track day instruction.
The only catch was that we had to drive to Phoenix in order to participate.
Well, we drove that one on the highway, too.
In October of 2012.
There were trucks and SUV's on the highway, again.
And again, we survived the ordeal.
Who would have thought that we would have survived driving on the Interstate in a Fiat, not once, but twice?
Oh, wait...
Whenever we drive to Denver, or Boulder, or Westminster, or Broomfield from our little house in Dacono, we drive on the interstate.
I-25, specifically.
I assure you, there are trucks and SUV's aplenty, at all times.
We're still alive.
Good luck getting your imagination back.
It does make life so much better.
