I'm not sure I like this review/summary, but at times a bit funny...

Claire does appear to "turn around" and go in the opposite direction a
couple times...

This was great - thanks for the link. I especially liked:

"Cut to Claire in her new car, which she starts with a power button
instead of a key. She pops Ted's Deeply Un-Hip Mix into the CD player.
Cue "Tubthumping" by Chumbawamba. No, not really. It's actually the song
from the Season Five trailer, "Breathe Me" by Sia. It sounds a bit like
a Tori Amos power ballad. If knowing this song makes Ted deeply un-hip,
I shudder to think what not knowing it makes me. Claire pulls out of the
driveway in a brand-new dark-gray Prius. As she drives down the street
from the funeral home, Claire looks in her sideview mirror and sees Late
Nate, Jr. running alongside her car. He drops out of sight as she picks
up speed. How fitting that a guy who once thought his wife had been
reincarnated as a dog now has to spend eternity chasing cars. With Nate
gone, Claire sobs harder than ever. Or maybe she just realized what a
horrible mistake she made by buying a brand-new car before moving to New
York. ["Could have been worse. Could have been an Accord." -- Sars]"

Yeah, I like the part where the author admits that although Ted is deeply
un-hip, that they are less less hip than Ted because they'd never heard the
Sia song [neither had I]

Much of it sounds like Jill Solloway smartass talk but that line about not
being hip got me thinking maybe they aren't so un-hip by admitting Ted is
more hip than they are... Also, the line about Billy and how when he first
meets Ted and says more with one monosyllable than most actors say in their
careers was cool.

Just think if she'd bought a used Yugo or Dodge Neon. The final shots would
have been her at various Firestone Car Care Centers or in the desert leaning
against her car stroking her hair. Trying to wave down the occasional
passing car, and giving them the finger and yelling "fuck you!" when they
don't stop.

Is it even possible to find a used Yugo these days??
