She beat the shit out of that car. About 3 years later she was ready to finance one and start building her credit....I said I only want you to remember one thing.
Driving around a dented car that you are making payments on really sucks. She took a lot better care of that one! |
I got my license when I was 15 and 4 days old. No such thing as a learners permit back then, and you had to be 15 to drive. Few days of quick lessons, and I was unleashed on the world with a full license.
I had been riding motorcycles since I was 8, and tractors from about the same age. Had a gas powered go-kart prior to that. Drove cars on the farm since I was about 12, So I wasn't exactly new at handling vehicles with a clutch etc.
