20160612_15k Desolate, bumpy gravel road near Glitterheim, Norway
My rental Dacia seemed to have some trouble after this road, on which I drove ca 40 km... (It was from Rent-A-Wreck, but it was accidentally new.) One of the service lights came on. One of the ones that mean "DRIVE CAREFULLY TO THE NEAREST WORKSHOP OR DIE." I freaked the fuck out and called the rental place to see if they could Google up the nearest shop for me. It seemed to be some kind of first time for them:
"Meh, I suggest you use the Internet to search -"
"AS I ALREADY MENTIONED, I DO NOT HAVE INTERNET ACCESS HERE, EHEHEHE."
Eventually I was given the name of some shop WAY too far away... (Like 150 km at least.) This would seriously cut into my roadtrip-time. *cries* I started to drive towards it... (By now I was back on normal, paved roads.) After 1 km, it sounded like a ton of gravel came loose from the undercarriage. Around that time, the service light switched itself off. Oh. OK. *gulp* I COULD CONTINUE MY FUCKING ROADTRIP UNINTERRUPTED! :)
