James has dubbed the rental car “The Landwhale.” It is large, unresponsive, with mushy pedals. It is not unlike driving a sofa controlled by stepping in bowls of oatmeal. Also, the spedometer/engine gage is reversed from what I’m used to. I foresee many occasions of glancing at my speed and going “TWO? Why am I going TWO?” Oh, well, s’only ’til the end of the week… Originally published at Tea with the Squash God . You can comment here or there .
