For myself, being over 6 feet tall, it was all I could do to squeeze into her van as a passenger. I found out squeezing in as a driver was even more difficult.
She said I could drive it, and then instructed me on how to drive and all the gadgets associated with driving her van.
Unfortunately, my habit is not to pay attention when people are talking about gadget things.
I’ve had my driver’s license for over 50 years, and I have driven many cars during that time.
I thanked her, got into her van, and it took quite a few minutes to get the seat settled where I can operate it.
Sitting in the driver’s seat, I felt like I was being squished on all sides.
After a few minutes, I was able to start it and then try to figure out how to put it in reverse. I found it finally and backed out of our driveway.
With a few more little squeegees, I put it back into drive and went forward. It was at this time I noticed the mirrors were all out of focus. How can my wife drive this van when the mirrors are so mixed up?
So, while driving along, I began to fiddle with the mirrors, trying to adjust them to where I could see out of them. There is a gadget for each mirror, and I got the gadgets mixed up. Finally, I got it to where it was at least usable for my driving.
