Day 2: April 6, 2007

Hours Worked: 9
Tips: $8 (Oh well... will try harder later)
# Of Jeeps Driven: 2

MUCH busier than yesterday... I can't remember how many cars I drove. I'll try to post some of them in categories...

1. Multiple Cars : Mercedes S500. 2 of them.

2. Car with the most miles: Pontiac Grand Prix GTP Supercharged, 213k.

3. Crappiest Car: 1996 Dodge Grand Caravan - 165k, airbag light, check engine light, brake light, no seats in rear, no tailgate interior panel, rattled like there was no tomorrow, engine knock. last oil change (according to sticker), 140k.
Runner Up: 199X Ford Taurus - airbag deployed and folded back in, which results in an airbag light, check engine light, interior stained and worn to h-e- double hockeysticks. 124k. Reeked of marijuana smoke. Front end shake. The car required starting instructions.
Second Runner Up: 2002 Kia Sedona. Again, heavily worn, with the worst front end vibration I've ever felt in my life. 65k miles.
Third Runner Up: 2001 Chrysler Voyager - broken headlight, driver's side window would not go back up, needs immediate detailing.

4. Surprise of the Day: 2006 Cadillac CTS. Wow...... for a car, that's the best one I drove all day, other than the 2 MBs. Wonder if I could trade my Jee.... j/k.
Runner Up: 2006 Kia Optima. I was very surprised at how well built it was! I couldn't believe it.... blew me away. Nice interior, and very Toyota like..... does Kia finally have their act together? Who knows... I'll be the judge at 60k miles.

5. Biggest Disappointment: 2003 or so Honda Accord - No tip!!!!!!! And when I started it up, after it took forever... I felt.... ENGINE VIBRATIONS! Those car magazines make it seem like Hondas are so REFINED! I expected perfection... as the cars are according to them...well... I didn't appreciate that very much. My engine was smoother...

6. Biggest Vehicle of the Day: Ford Expedition EL. BTW: I could drive that every day if I had to. Nice interior and turning radius. You won't believe it, but I actually liked it..... it was the newer model, a 2007 I guess. Drool........

7. The LOL (person) of the day: This hippie woman in a '07 Jeep Liberty. Oh my god she was hilarious, and her Jeep had peace signs all over it, along with some hawaiian accents, and a "Pineapple" air freshener.

8. The LOL (vehicle) of the day: Honda Ridgeline. Yes, Honda's LAME attempt at a pickup truck. Enough said...

9. Most liked of the day: The Expedition and the MB S500.

10. Most hated of the day: 1992? Pontiac TransSport. Horrific visibility and 2005 Chevrolet Monte Carlo. Again, weed smell...... and cranberry juice mixed with vodka.

After today, NOW I see why companies drug test employees....

And.. would it kill these people to get their cars occasionally detailed/cleaned? The crap that I've touched today has been ridiculous! I'm glad some people appreciate their cars... but ugh, there's no way I should be staring at 2 day old Taco Bell.
