[Scully]

Over the summer, my husband and I purchased a Ford Escape. The past eight years, all I had driven were 2-door hatchbacks. So this was a big jump for me! DH drives trucks at work everyday, so he was fine.

But getting used to the Escape took a bit of an effort. I use the Celica as my daily-driver, but DH and I switch cars once a week. I just had to keep taking the truck out and make myself comfortable with it. Now I have no trouble at all. I think it's worse for him, because he curses me every time he has to move the seat back!

The two vehicles handle very differently, but in all honesty, that just has to do with how often you will be driving it. The more practice, the better it will be - getting used to new blind-spots, etc. You'll be fine!
