California Cruizer

Posted recap or our brief trip to Russian River and Napa here : Earthy Delights: California Dream'n


Here's the rental car we cruised in. Strange "features" that we finally got use to. Things like having to jiggle the steering wheel to get the ignition to work, and annoying "alarm" linked to the top being down. If I only lowered the top to where the servo motors whined, not continued until they "chirped" there was an alarm at low speed telling us that the top was down ... like duh!




Overall an OK car, but more styling than substance. It's actually not that much smaller than my 93 Seville, and has excess headroom - maybe six inches worth. Little trunk space, small rear seat, long expanse of dash.
But it was a rental, the only rag-tops they had.

Even with temps in the high 50's we got our dose of sunshine.
