I'm here. Just had some stuff to do. I slip-slid all the way to work this morning. I took the Crossfire. It was sunny when I left home. I knew it was supposed to rain but the last time I had seen the radar there was nothing on it. As soon as I hit Davidson county (metro Nashville) It opened up & was raining super hard & ponding on the roads. I put the Crossfire in wet mode and slowed down but I could feel it getting a little loose so I slowed down some more. A few minutes later I felt it fishtail a little & slowed down even more. Then the windshield started fogging up more than it already was. I did all the things you are supposed to do but it just kept getting worse. I fished around in my purse & found a tissue & started wiping the inside of the windshield every couple of minutes. By the time I made it to work I was kind of mad and a little scared. The defogger in the Crossfire is notorious for being ineffective. I called Mike & said I would not be driving the Crossfire any more in the rain. I am glad I did not have to worry about Ruby out in that mess today but at the same time I know she would have been sure-footed & would have kept me feeling safe. It is supposed to rain again tomorrow. I think I will try the driving the Cruze.
