I had that happen twice with my mom. When I was a senior in high school (1994) I had my eye on a new Formula Firebird. I think back then it had 275hp. I hinted and hinted about it and one day she said we could take a look at it. A few days later I drove it home, amazed. Then in 1997 when the C5 vettes came out I thought I'd try it again and immediately got shot down. One day I mentioned to her that the local dealer had gotten some new vettes in and she says ok, let's go look. Local dealer was a jerk so we wound up flying up to New Jersey and bought one at Kerbeck and drove it back. Her thought was that she had cancer and wanted to see me enjoy a few things before she was gone. That was an amazing trip and a great memory of mom. Sometimes parents can surprise you
