Saga of the rental car, part 4

So there we are, driving the Ares Predator around like that's a good idea. A few days into the trip, we decide to drive into Kahilui for (something). Its dusk, and we get on the road heading inland. We're in Napili, technically, so this is a 30-45 minute drive, depending on traffic. As we get towards Lahaina, Heidi turns to me. (It's okay, go check Google Maps. I'll wait here.)

"What if we roll? This car doesn't have a roof."

Do you have some plans I don't know about? How about we just don't roll the car?

"Listen to the engine, though. I'm not sure I want to drive this at night."

The engine did sound like driving at 40 miles an hour in a straight line was asking too much.

Do you want to call the rental place tomorrow and see if we can trade it in?

"...Yes."

So, we turned around, and we did. They were very nice about how scuzzed up the car was, and swapped is straight across for an '07 Corolla. Much better.

Heidi named it "Bessie."
