Great story and what an awesome car. I love hearing that parents are still raising great kids. I like the fact that you accepted all his requirements and didnt complain. A lot of kids these days think it is just our job as parents to buy them cars. Enjoy your car and good luck on the restore of the 68 Stang.

I never would've expected such a fine automobile to be mine. But I couldn't be happier. As for those requirements, I'm sure my dad will add even more as he sees fit. And no matter what they are, I'll be willing to accept them. I'm very fortunate to have what I have. And I hope to someday pass it on to my kids. As for the '68, I'll probably start a thread on it pretty soon to showcase my progress. It's on a rotisserie right now. Thank you! Thank you for the kind words! Glad to hear you've got a new 2012 as well. Hope you enjoy it! |

Lost my POPS two years ago and not afraid to say your story brought a tear to my eye! Don't take what your parents, espicially your "Old Man" has done for you. Take the time out of your day to remind him how "thankful you are" and for god sakes toss him the keys once in awhile!! |

I will never take what they've done for granted. Like I said, he's been driving it one and off since monday last week, and I'm totally fine with it. They were actually going to surprise me when I came home over thanksgiving break (this coming friday). My dad was talking to me saturday night and asked me "Do you mind if I drive it while you're gone? I planned on taking your mother out on a date but when you came home we decided to wait and let you drive it. So I'd like to take her out on a date this week in the Camaro. Is that ok?" I was surprised he even asked. I smiled and told him "Dad, you're welcome to drive the Camaro any time you wish. You may have gotten it for me, but you paid for it, it's your car. Anytime you want it you don't even need to ask, just take the keys!" A little off topic but I've actually been hunting with my dad out near Cypress TX. |

Hey! That looks almost like mine, except they spelled 'RS' wrong on yours. You should take it back.
I kid... I kid... Congrats!

North of Cypress is good hunting, out towards College Station / Brenham. Cypress has grown alot even in the 5 years, i've been here. Still see a few deer in my subdivision but not many. Company I work for has a lease out in Victoria. LOTS of deer and wild boar for target practice there
