This needs to go on Jalopnik. Now.

Very well-written, witty, extremely enjoyable read. Loved the "flower-powered bullshit boxes" line, hehehe

Wouldn't that be "No aggressive driving here! This is a race track!"

On phone I am. Therefore, if mistakes I make, Frank Oz blame you should.

Thanks for the kind words fellow forumgoers, I don't find it too incredibly well written as I was tired and it was early in the morning, but I'm glad you all like it!

Every writer is his own worst critic. Sure it could use some cleanup & organization, but it's not bad at all for a free-flowing Internet-posted first draft.

@VesperLynn
I learned about your car on Instagram, and have even used it as my cell phone background xD
It's beautiful. And you, sir, are beautiful as well.
