On Saturday I was out wiping down the car, our neighbors (friends) come over with their son as they usually do. Their son loves the car, always has to come over to see it. This time he noticed the Autobot center caps I put on a few days earlier (apparently he loves the Transformers). Not even sure how he seen them as it was pretty dark, but he was even more memorized by the car, just so excited!

Anyway, I just received a text from his dad “asking for a small favor”? The favor, to take him and their son for a ride. Apparently their son had written a note on the fridge (Saturday night) to tell them to call or text me to ask for a ride and has been bugging them ever since. I was so excited by this, of course I sad yes. Unfortunately I was not able to do it tonight, but we are going tomorrow for a cruise.

This is one of those times the car makes me feel so young and makes me so excited.

Here is a pic from our cruise:

Looks like a possible future Camaro owner???

I have a 5 year old and an 8 year old that really really want to go for a ride too, they loved the test drive and are anxiously awaiting the new arrival (I am too -- who am I kidding)

Great story.

Nice, do it and you will make new friends.

y0diggity · 08-03-2011, 07:49 PM

Just give the neighbor the keys. Let him and his little dude go out. That'd be awesome for them. Just a thought. Either way it'll be great, but just saying that it might be cool to let them go by themselves.
