Do you find yourself making wide turns in your 4 wheeler?

Heck yeah, another bad habit, is going to clutch in and hitting the brakes! (auto in the Explorer). I have even found myself running at the truck speed limit before, and once I almost pulled into a scalehouse; when the driver behind me honked the horn, it kind of snapped me back to reality!

One thing I DO miss in the car, is my CB- on some runs it's nice to be able to talk to someone, since when we travel the kids are watching a DVD and the wife is usually asleep.

 

No, but I do find myself squaring corners sometimes.

 

of watching my right hand mirror while turning right in my car. i like to be able to see the curb as i'm turning. sound familiar????

 

You've got that right..LOL

And it's almost like I don't know how to back up my pick-up or car, because there is NO trailer hooked on back there!

 

I get in my wife's car (buick century) and I have a hard time judging distance while parking or pulling into a parking spot!

 

Honking the horn to get a driver's attention and crack your hand on the A-pillar!!! That hurts!! Besides reaching to set the parking brakes that are not equipped on a 4-wheeler.

 

Oh I used to hate doing this, and did it regularly for about 2 weeks! Glad I grew out of it!

 

I find myself looking for the clutch in my automatic Neon all the time, even after being off the road for a year. I still rarely use my center mirror, and I squared off my corners for the longest time. Must have looked pretty funny to the other folks on the road that I swung so wide in such a tiny car.

I just hope when I get back on the road this spring that it doesn't take me as long to get back into those habits as it took me to get out of them.

 

LOL, today I used the yard truck to back a trailer in, and was hunting for the clutch on it too! And I drove that truck for many months solid before I got my CDL!
