BBQs don’t fit well into midsize cars
The new place has a nice little patio type area, and BBQs are allowed. Well, we don’t have a grill, so that ended up being my birthday present from Val. Of course, knowing how impossible I am to shop for, she said, “I’m getting you a grill–well, you go pick it out and get it, but it’s from me!” which was perfectly reasonable. I’m also cheap, so I waited until they hit clearance at Target.
Picked the middle-of-the-road one, on clearance for $180. Uhm… doesn’t fit into the BMW, no way, no how, even after taking it out of the box. Hmm. OK, went home and exchanged cars. Wow, it pretty much doesn’t fit into the Acura, either! These things are bigger than I’d expect! Anyhow, did finally manage to get it in the passenger side front seat, with a lot of finagling. But, it was close, and at first, it was pinning the gearshift into 1st, which wasn’t too useful. But, I did finally get it home.
