Chip - I agree.
If you're the kind of person who wants straightforward, objective living,
with clean quantitative answers, and efficiency and closure everything you
do, THEN BOY ARE YOU IN TROUBLE OWNING A MORGAN!! Everything you do with a
Morgan comes complete with five unnecessary anachronisms, three completely
illogical process steps, two-and-a-half chuckles, and one belly laugh. I
know they look straightforward and simple; my Jeep is straightforward and
simple. The Morgan has a personality, and personalities are NEVER simple.
I loved the Burt Levy article reprint in the latest Rough Rider. "I say,
Morgan, I'm afraid I've made rather a mess of this corner". "Perhaps we can
sort it out, sir." "I've lifted off the gas and made a steering correction."
"That should do nicely, sir. Will there be anything else?" What other car
could you write that about?
