In January of 1991, Princess Kawananakoa shipped her Lincoln Town Car from Los Angeles to Honolulu aboard Matson's "Kainalu" at a cost of $670.60. The odometer mileage read 25,464.
Over the years, Princess Kawananakoa has since maintained and serviced her Lincoln Town Car regularly at the Mike Salta Lincoln-Mercury Dealership, the Honolulu Ford dealership and Burt's Union 76 Service station.
