One like this?



That was my Avis rental car for the duration of my first visit to the US in 1999.
I'd booked something rather more modest, but when I arrived in Denver I was offered a deal whereby I paid a one grade increase for a two grades up car.
On reflection, I suppose that meant they didn't have a car in the size I'd booked so a carrot was dangled in the form of the big Buick.
Heavens knows how much more unnecessary expense I 'volunteered' for!
However, it was comfortable, roomy and so new that it still had a temporary plate in the form of a sheet of paper taped in the rear window.
Memory has faded somewhat, but I think that photo was taken somewhere in SD. I could probably narrow it down a bit given time, but it's late here.
