She told me she wanted to go see the son tomorrow, so I had her
drive it home from the drop off place to see if she could
handle it. First time she has ever driven my truck in 14
years. I didn't like it.
I thought she had done a little driving when you were in the Utah
boonies? Maybe I'm mixing you up with another poster here.
That was her daily driver, the Ford Bronco. I drive a Ford F-150 which she had never driven before. It's a much bigger vehicle than what she is used to so my big concern is her forgetting the rear axle and running over curbs, kids, or grandma. I've got a driveway that is 25' wide at the street. Yet just about everyone who pulls into the driveway can't seem to manage to stay off the grass when making a right hand turn. Drives me nuts. I've told my MIL it was a good thing there wasn't a kid standing there as she's gone over 6' in the grass and would have killed the poor thing.
I back it into my garage and she drove it to the driveway and told me I could put it in there. Parking even in a stalled lot is nothing like what she is used to. Then you have to remember when they're driving to not talk to them. They forget the vehicle again and start running things over.
She can ask all she wants, but I'm never letting her drive the RV. Just ain't worth it. When I'm dead she's gonna sell it anyway, so why bother.
