How funny! My first test drive was from my house back to the dealership because my wife drove it home to surprise me. Less than a minute into the drive, she asked me what I thought of it. I just shook my head and said "Psshhh... bucket of bolts." It wasn't until my second try a week later that I decided to really give it a whirl. That's what it took. I was sold.
