So I got out and said to the young boy "would YOU like to SIT in Bumblebee???" The kid nearly fainted.....but from the front seat I heard "I dont' know about him, but daddy does!!........."
The kid was simply beside himself that he got to sit in bumblebee!! His enthusiasm was contagious -- as a small crowd gathered.......

When I first bought our Camaro we tripped from Chicago to Brooklyn, NY. We stopped for lunch one day and had nearly the same experience even though it wasn't BB. Dad was taking pictures while I sat his boy in the front seat and he pretended to drive.
A good time was had by all.
