The car

[Mortblanc]

NO!! It sucks!

I'm a cowboy, I need my Jeep, pickup or duce-n-a-half! How is a man to maintain a proper image driving a pregnant roller skate.

Actually it does a good job of going A-B and gets exceptional mileage. 35MPG of our 1 quart short of yours gallons. It runs at motorway speeds like a sewing machine, but blows about radically in the slightest breeze. A good sized motorbike makes enough wind to scare it badly. (Actually a good sized motorbike has a larger engine)

I had to trim down the emergency gear because the "action packer" would not fit into the boot. I had to trim the med supplies down to trauma for ten and the food supply was reduced to one week rather than two. I also had to toss one blanket and the tent so I am down to a couple of tarps and a zero bag. I now have a system; If the weather is bad I'm not going out, so I need less these days.

It is just barely wide enough for the shotgun to fit the back seat floor side to side, but it does have a glove box large enough to hold a Russian Torkrev pistol so I am getting by.

One nice thing is that it is invisible. I mean completely disappears once you walk away, like a Klingon space ship. I had to put a florescent tennis ball on the radio antenna so I can find it in the car park when shopping. It is that shade of charcoal black that absolutely no one notices.

If I ever wanted "gray man" out of a survival vehicle this is it!
