Gotta love loner cars
I had to drop of my car today at the dealership bodyshop cuz they found some scratches on the driver side fender from when it sat in chicago before they brought it here. They gave me a loner car, a 2008 Malibu, its a freakin grandma car. It has a fun factory of 0 when driving it. Hopefully it'll be done quick.
When my car was being repaired from when I got rear-ended last year I was given a f'ing Suzukia Forenza and I hated every second of it. Such a pos. I actually got a phone call on the 2nd to last day I had it that it got recalled and they had to give me something else haha. I took that s.o.b. up to 110 though just to see if it would break haha

My car had a slight boost issue when I first got it. (Loose nut on actuator rod - needed to be tightened and re-adjusted)
Anyway, I had the pleasure to driving a Chevy Express 'Work Van' for a day. A BIG box of emptyness. It had two seats and A/C. Not much else.

When I had a previous car in the shop once they had a car rental place at the bodyshop. Of course had the renters insurance and just about had to use it. I was just maybe 2 blocks away when some lady at the very last second pulled out of a gas statio and just about t-boned me. I wonder what their reaction would have been if I called and said I needed another rental.

What is a fun factory?
Without a fun factory the car can produce no fun?!?!
Do fun factories run off of the engine, like an alternator, belt driven? Perhaps the belt is just slipping.
Are fun factories strictly electric, like a car stereo? Perhaps the fuse is blown.
In any event I would take it back and ask for a car with a fun factory, or at least a functional fun factory! Cuz that's BS!
If they refuse, perhaps you can borrow a fun factory from someone else to use while driving the car.
Sorry, I just couldn't resist!

My friend works at the dealership the car is at and he said earlier today it was already in the paint booth so hopefully I can get it back tommorrow or thursday at the latest. It was just three not even medium size scratches so it shouldn't have take them to long to fix I would think.
