Even better, the cops didn't convince her to drive around a school bus. She broke the law all by her lonesome.

After hearing her mom's argument, first thing that came to mind is that if you KNOW this bus stops here all the time and takes forever, then pick a damn different route. Is it really that tough to go a block over?

Actually it looks like it would take no thought at all:

This.

Isn't that a POS Caliber clone? Or is that the Compass?

Both, though the compass has the similar body lines. Actually the compass and patriot are the same platform with a *slight* change in body styling.

The compass was focused on the "outdoorsy" woman, and the patriot was supposed to be the more masculine version...

Yeah... masculine, with a 4 banger and a CVT trans, FWD based half assed 4x4, only "trail rated" in the Limited version with autostick. and virtually no cargo room.

I'll stick to my 3/4 ton diesel.

Yep, Caliber drivetrain. Garbage.

The 2nd worse rental car I've ever driven (the worst was some kind of Hyundai Accent or whatever)
