Tomorrow morning (rather, later this morning since it is currently 12:45AM on Saturday) I am going to attempt to drive a large, 17 foot UHaul truck through northeast DC, load it up with all my belongings and drive it to my uncle's house in Germantown. The largest vehicle I have ever driven is my aunt's Toyota Sequoia for about 5 minutes before I determined I was a serious hazard behind the wheel of such a monstrous piece of machinery and gave up. This time, I have no choice. There is NO ONE to drive the truck but me. What's a girl to do?? I'm not going to lie - I'm terrified. I anticipate a lot of angry honking, perhaps some middle fingers raised in my direction, a few curbs that I miss and run completely over and maybe a minor "bump" when I try to park it. I'm just praying to God (Allah) that I won't have to reverse at any point in my journey.
Keep your fingers crossed - I'm hoping I'll live to tell the tale!

Are those standard or automatic? Honks are mosquito buzzes. Just ignore them and they shall fly around you. You're the one with a BIG car.
That's not a 17 foot truck! That's the 14 foot model.
