So my dad, my brother, and myself were down there on vacation, visiting our grandparents,
and we got a call that they wanted to sell it, so we traded in our airline tickets and
paid 500 bucks for the car and drove it home.
Wow.
Wow.
That had to be a fun road trip, and the car made it.
It made it.
It was no problem.
I don't remember how many miles were on it, but it made it.
Yeah.
