Stupid Worry

 You get used to things don't you? 
I can't even remember the last time I drove a car that wasn't my little thing. Now I have to drive my mother's heavy-steering all-wheel drive vehicle from the mechanics. At school traffic hour. On several busy main roads. I pre-apologise to all other drivers if I am slooooow. 

Also if you find someone slow on the road, well maybe, just maybe, they are a dutiful child used to driving something light and nippy doing a favour for a parent. A parent with a very different car/truck/bus/cruiseship-on-wheels!

Good luck with driving a different car - I hope it ends up not being as dreadful as you fear

Oh, I hear you. Driving for work I've ended up with a heavy four wheel drive diesel behemoth the last couple of times. Have really appreciated the weight because both times ended up driving on country roads through rain so heavy the visibility was reduced, but the drive was really smooth!
