uhm…uh…sigh…uh…excuse me Avis man that can’t speak English, but I don’t seem to understand the “push here to start,” maybe I will have better luck understanding you? One would think it’s fairly straight forward. I mean, even Ren & Stimpy knew how to push the shiny red button (don’t push it!") ~ and their button worked. I seem to be simplistically challenged. Make it too simple and I can’t handle it. THAT’S IT! I am too intelligent for the car!
The fob was in there (cool, you mean i can have the fob in my POCKET and the car will (supposedly) still start?! Nuts, you say!
I am pushing the button that states “push here to start”…the electronics come on…but what the heck, the engine wont engage?! Do I have to stroke it’s ego? Buy it dinner? What? Is it like the horse I rode once that decided that I wasn’t worthy and would only walk straight into the thorn bush? Bastard horse. You ruined a good bra that day, Mister Ed. Not all of us have thick hides…especially not Victoria and her secrets.
I have a college degree. I like to think I have common sense. Guess not, at least when it comes to automotive and electronics…case in point (and no one needs to bring up the Honda Paperweight and VW Fritzmobile).
So I sit. I sit defeated by a Nisson. A NISSON! Not even a manual transmission or a BMW… or a Porche, but an automatic NISSON?
I give u…wait, what’s this little illustration over here? A brake pedal PLUS the start button? Huh…OK…I’ll try the instructions. Imagine that…it worked! (Mental note, next time look for instructions and follow! …Thank God, I am pretty…although I thought I was smart too…guess the Ugly Blog will be coming soon too…)
Now, on to the Long Island Expressway where I haven’t thought to check whether or not Avis has reprogrammed the navigational system to the defaults and I get to try to reset them on one of the busiest highways in the country because some ya-hoo has told it to avoid highways, u-turns, traffic (seriously…avoid traffic?! it’s a NAVIGATIONAL SYSTEM…fairly certain there will be “traffic” everywhere…you’re on STREETS), tolls, trolls, blue cars, green rusty trucks, and people with white shirts. Just a thought…if you need to avoid all of that stuff, you should take a taxi or hire a service in NYC. Just saying.
