328 and fireworks.........

Yes,
Took the girl friend for a ride today to the local fireworks stand. Got a ton of looks, and the guy working in the stand was willing to trade his F350 truck for the 328!!!

Couldn't really fit a bunch of fireworks in the car, but, the idea of driving a Italian sports car to the fireworks stand and driving around with the top off, with the sound of that Ferrari motor behind me, makes for a great start to the day, and reminds me of what a great country we live in.

I hope you enjoyed your 4th and enjoy the freedom that we have.......

Just in case you are interested, the car was safely put back in the garage before and fireworks were lit....... ;-)

 

Quick story, there was a wonderful older gentleman out East here who passed away about a year and a half ago, rather sadly. But during his life he had been quite successful and owned a large collection of Ferrari. He often told the story that one day he was out driving one of his Enzos (yes, you read that right) when a guy in his early 20's driving a Toyota pick-up pulled up next to him at a stop light and said to him "Nice car! Want to trade?" Without hesitation, in his heavily accented Italian-English, Benny said "Okay, I givva you the car, you givva me you age."

I guess you didn't go for the F350. LOL
