I got stuck on the strap pulls, if she strapped herself in properly they may just blow.....

I figure the cost has to be north of $10.00 per mile!

Not that I'm trying to

in any way. OK, maybe I am doing that, but just a little!

Considering the hit I took when I sold the car, maintenance, battery, fuel, I figure around $15.00 per mile - which is significantly less than my kids cost me.

well I hope your kids brought you a little more than a handful of sulfated batteries and 70 hours of fun in 6 years

(3500 miles / 50 mph = 70 hours)

IN 6 YEARS !!!
