*tsk* "automobile" is for special occasions and names of organizations! We drive **cars**...(except that I also drive a very large 'van'...which I was JUST informed by an English Mudcatter at our folk Getaway was really a 'caravan'..meaning "any boxy vehicle large enough to sleep in" according to her.)

"Lift" is easier, but *shrug* Two countries divided by a common language.
