So here is what happened. Was going for a hike up near Little River Canyon in NE Alabama. Wife leaves purse in the hatch area and I close the hatch and attempt to lock the car. Hatch goes all the way down, reverses and goes all the way back up. I thought a towel was in the closing mechanism, tried to close again. Hatch goes all the way down and back up. After 3 attempt and a few stares I asked my wife to put the key in her pocket. Hatch closed no problem. Dam smart car?
If you ever want to drive some roads that very few cars can navigate over 45 miles an hour hit the road that goes down the edge of Little River Canyon. A real unexpected treat to the weekend…now if I can just get wifey out of the car for a few minutes to turn it loose…
