My wife borrowed my car..
...Three years ago and i just came across the instruction i gave her via a message on facebook as i was looking for something she sent me recently and was scrolling through the history.
Apparently i was out of town for one reason or another and her car was in the shop i'm guessing, as i never let her nor does she want to drive my cars. Enlarge it to read the text. |

I was offshore and it was Christmas time, the wife's car had a dead battery ( one of my grocery holes left the door open and killed the battery). She decided rouse the Z06 to finish the Christmas shopping. It had been raining and the roads were cold and wet, she sent me a message that said " the car sure. Does push a lot in the corners with any speed when going in to corners".
I was thinking "WTF? How fast was she taking the so called "Corners", ends up. Thefrnts were fairly shot. |

My wife can drive anything. Before I met her, she rode a Honda 50 to college in Los Angeles traffic. Her first husband was a minister and she drove a 1940s Church bus with manual everything.

Well, maybe one of them. |

The last time Jackie drove the 65, was home from a CI after i had made one too many trips by the beer trailer. She can drive it fine (her first car was a 4-speed), but she says it makes her nervous knowing it's "plastic".

it's spring 1981;
19yo Yvonne (who I only had only dated for a few weeks) shows up at work offering to take my 1980 Corvette to the AirForce base to wash & vacuum it out... while leaving me her Javelin to drive home from work. What would you have done? I handed her the keys and said "see you after work... I guess?" my pecker made all the decisions back then |
