A Lakewood driver almost ran into me this morning in my town. You can imagine how I know for a fact they were from Lakewood. I just see this car getting closer and closer and cross the middle line. Heās got his head bent down completely looking at his phone. I laid on the horn for a minute straight even after he corrected and Iām kind of glad he was in the far left lane and I was turning right because I would have been loud.

Brother, sold my 1965 mustang fastback, that I had just did a rotisserie job on. Its how I changed our lives, got enough to pay cash for our place, moves several states away, and literally started over. Now I have what is close to a classic, 2002 SS Camaro with 20 thousand on it, and my daily is a 650rwhp 2010 SS Camaro 
paid for 
I have a nice turbo diesel also, but itās used for homestead work. I never have much liked a truck, unless I needed a truckā¦lol

Mines in need of the rotisserie job, but its numbers matching, pretty much all original, factory AC, and rare 3 speed on the tree. Technically 3rd owner, dad was 2nd, original had it for 6 weeks before moving to Colombia and selling to my pops. He planned to take it to colombia, but import / export / transport fees were ridiculous so he sold to my pops. Thats why the factory AC 
I even have the original paperwork and window stickers.
One dayā¦ Sheāll be restored properlyā¦

At 38 Iāve driven it one time and got a disapproving look when I hit second a little too enthusiastically lol.
My dad has a 70 Challenger thatās been sitting for years too I might end up with if he doesnāt peel it off. Iād love to have it but I grew up looking at the Mustang and if I had to choose one itās not even close.

Thereās a Nick Swardson joke (back when he was more interested in being funny than drinking) where he was talking about seniors driving slow. Something like when heās 80 heāll be doing 80 cause heās got less to lose and more living to pack in. He was like this could be a standard conversation-
Hey Nick I heard your grandmother died, Iām so sorry. What happened?
Oh she flipped her Vette, we knew it would happen one of these days
