Somewhat anti-climatic, or post-climatic, depending on your point of view; I sustained more damage monetary-wise today than anything that Edouard could dish out. They don't give replacement steel wheels away, and I estimate that I'll need at least one to bring back the (what car & driver magazine calls) the Suzuki Forensia Station Wagon's "Rubbery" ride. Translate 'rubbery' as smooth and comfortable; but you see: this magazine is pitched to sports-car enthusiasts who regard rubbery ride as being sloppy to precise handling when driving to the max. These Walter Mitty types don't have a real grasp of the real world; that is to say: Day to day driving chores and requirements are not understood or appreciated.
