Been there; done that.

Besides, sometimes you have to give up something of a lower order to achieve something of a higher order.

Actually, there's a road quite some distance from my place that is at most a straightaway with some occasional turns. It sounds boring, and my opinion may be skewed since the FR-S is my first sports car, but I enjoyed driving down the road and back, more so than the neighboring canyon with a good amount of turns yet too much traffic and slow drivers to deal with. Mind you, this was done at night, which I felt heightened the experience for me.

Just FYI if you ever have to do any warranty work on your car the toyota dealership here in Hawaii will not honor it. Servco Hawaii Inc. owns the Toyota/Scion dealerships here on Oahu, Kauai, Maui and Big Island. Servco Hawaii is not part of Toyota USA, they are their own entity. Therefore they don't have to abide to any warranties Toyota USA has. It's the same if I was to move to California the Toyota dealers there will not honor any warranties for my car. Because I bought my car from Servco Scion.

OP are you being stationed here at one of the military bases? Prepare yourself for some frickin traffic on the freeway & everywhere else. We got RAIL construction going on.

Love Maui. The road to Hana is very twisty and fun as long as there is no traffic. Never been to the big island. Very jealous.

I almost forgot. Easier to get "leid" in Hawaii.

Is this a permanent move or a temporary assignment?

My thoughts on Island living is "Anyone who wants to live on an Island has not lived on an Island." They get small after a while and everything is either expensive or not available. You will develop a disdain for tourist. You are about to move in to a status of "Not a tourist but not from here either".

Cars in Hawaii rust like crazy due to the salt air.

As an experience to be had though, any living in a new environment is worth experiencing. Have fun.
