He complained about this the entire time, even after I’d suddenly realized that I was driving a diesel. Oh well.
I also had to explain that the truck didn’t have heat or air conditioning, because my old Ford didn’t, but that the power windows worked excellently well, unlike in the Neon.
If he didn’t like your truck, he should have brought his own vehicle on the Sahara expedition. Maybe a Range Rover; they are Fabulous.
I deduce that you watched “Sahara” in your sleep.
