I've had my Dad's car all week.  They've been in Costa Rica and left it with me so I could pick them up from the airport... tonight.  I haven't had use of a vehicle for any extended period of time for so many years that i had completely forgotten how AWESOME IT IS!!  I don't want to give it back ( Read more... )
