This is a short, funny story from last night. I jump in the Grenny, leave work, and head for a Chinese restaurant where a phone in order awaits me. It is dark out, and I'm running late enough the take-out place has already called my wife to ensure I will show up. As I set out, I heard a strange new noise. An Intermittent motor or some actuator coming on and off. I keep going at this point, not to make anybody wait any longer, gather the lukewarm Chinese food, and head out again. By this point, curiosity has gotten the better of me. I am sure that other drivers are questioning the slow and erratic green foreign-looking SUV with me inside, trying to locate this new noise. Now I pull over, shut down the car, and open the door to shut it down, do a walk around, but nothing looks out of place. Of course, at this point, my mind is going to the worst scenario: what in this new vehicle is coming apart, or has it just developed its own mind? Whatever the case is, it's definitely not a confidence builder at this point. Off we go again, and there it is again, some well-timed motor trying to escape from the rear of the Grenny. This time, I pull over, leaving it running, and jump out to start my investigation. Back seats first and then head to the rear doors, and there it is. The rear wiper is on the intermittent setting...
I'll also mention that it took me a moment to find the switch for it, but it is there. Everybody got their dinner, and I'm a little better educated about life with an Ineos.
