"free range potato" heh, that got a laugh out of me.

Seriously, what does a guy have to do to get vandalized in this town? You could try and open a Starbucks across the street from an anarchist coffee house, but that's a bit cumbersome/limited in application.

I grew up in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil so I'm used to small streets and lots of traffic. Never had a car accident so I believe I'm a good driver and hopefully, since I'm a girl, nobdy will mistaken me for a pimp.

There are worse things to be mistaken for than a pimp if you are a girl on 82nd street, if you get my drift...

The problem you will have with a large vehicle is getting it into and out of parking spaces.

Parking lots seem to be designed to only accommodate those little hamster size cars.

That's funny. I drive an F350 Turbo Diesel Long Box Crew Cab, Never had a problem getting in a space. But.... Some do have to dodge my Hitch in the head-in spaces.
