When finally forced to rent a vehicle in Moab, Utah I could have joined the mob and got a Jeep.
But where’s the challenge in that?
I asked for the car with the lowest available road clearance needing 91 Octane fuel. (Gas was at a record high price at the time.)

The Crossfire Roadster has a soft top and an automatic spoiler that deploys depending on speed.
It has plenty of trunk space (if you are transporting several loaves of bread).
I took to the secondary highways and jeep tracks of the Colorado Plateau with the most inappropriate wheels available.
Good fun.
