No tickets yet !!!!!! Not for the lack of trying tho,
Several weeks ago on the way home from work (8:30p.m.) my boss (nice guy) came flying past me in his BMW

HA I couldn't have that. SOOOOOOOO 3rd gear I passed him at about 85 and he fell in behind me to get past someone I looked in my mirror as I was going into 4th and he was falling back. I looked down at the speedo and saw I was just passing 130 OMG THIS THING FLYS!!!

.... Never made it past 4th!!!

I have some bad news for our group...My parents want me to sell my car.

Sevn86 · 09-06-2010, 11:15 PM

They are saying that my car is no longer practical for us and that we need something that can be driven by all in the family and not just me...they want me to get a Lexus or BMW. Not a 100% sure if it will happen but there is a 70% chance it might. I dont want to let my baby go but if they want me to then I guess I will...

Something that can be driven by all in the family?? You must be kidding! Who CAN'T drive it? ...or is it that you have the only keys? Sven; what am I missing here?

My parents want me to get a Lexus or BMW SUV. since my grandmothers here i cant use my car anymore since it only seats 4 and plus she is old so she would have trouble getting in and out of my car. we have a 08 Jeep Grand Cherokee that we use on a daily basis but they want to get luxury SUV. The main reason they want me to sell it and get something else is no one other then me in my family drives the camaro, lol its not about who has the keys but ever since i got it my dad has only drove it twice and no one else has even touched the drivers seat (my mom and my sister). and now that my grandmothers here my car just sits in the garage. They are saying that instead of making close to $600 payments on something we cant drive anymore its best to get a car we can actually use. Im just bummed. I got a ticket on sunday and came monday i got more bad news...

Its not a 100% final but just the thought of selling my car is making me sad.

Sevn: Now I understand better...family first, car second...not always easy, but it's always right...Camaro's are much easier to replace; family is irreplaceable.

Indeed.
