It gets hot and humid in the Rhine Valley in mid July and the traffic jams (stau) can span dozens of kilometers.RPMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13318709482253523348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5233222426734946602.post-64993204030605422032013-07-26T05:26:28.261-07:002013-07-26T05:26:28.261-07:00When reserving a rental car out of the country cho...When reserving a rental car out of the country choose automatic on required options and you will get a decent car.

Our last trip to England we ended up with a very nice Audi A5, but our current trip to Spain I got a Chevy Spark, and Jackie got some Toyota shitbox, I don't even remember what its called. I literally had to downshift into 3rd and wind it out to redline to make it up grades on the highway, with my speed dropping down to 90kph in a 120kph zone. Jackie's shitbox did a little better, only having to shift into 4th. On the plus side, we crammed seven people and all of our crap into these two little cars, that were not much bigger than a Smart Car and used about a 1/16 of a tank of gas on our 1.5 hour journey from Barcelona to Tossa de Mar. Also, navigating the tiny streets where buildings loomed only inches from the mirrors made me thankful for the tiny car.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
