I must not be very adaptable when it comes to cars.

You get off your plane, rum-dumb from travel delays, hobble on over to the car rental place, throw your bags into the pre-opened trunk, and drive off to your hotel in the middle of the night.

After parking the car in hotel lot, you walk around to the trunk. Where is the key hole? No problem. Use the fob. No trunk button on the fob. No problem. Open the driver's door and find the obviously labelled lever. No lever. No problem. Must be a button somewhere with a trunk open icon. No button. No problem. It'll be in the owner's manual in the glove compartment. No owner's manual.

Now what?

This has happened to me a couple of times. Only on Pontiacs.

My solution? Don't allow them to give you a Pontiac. All the controls are screwed up. Also, until and unless I can figure out how the trunk opens, baggage goes in the back seat.
