"There is no possible way to "sneak out" of your neighborhood at 6 am."

I think that's true about my husband. The cops know him by name & vehicle around here. "You're the guy with that white Trans Am" or the cops pull him over and are like "hello, Mr. Crooks.".. they've came to his house before after some other guy in a white trans am pulled some crazy stuff. When the people told the officer, they automatically assumed it was Ryan.

I wont even bother going to the guy
2. You can't drive your car in the rain.
I dont see why I couldn't but i choose not 2
3. Your 'significant other' is afraid to drive your car.
Wouldn't let my significant other (if I had one) ill just use my X for right now tho, drive my car
4. You are afraid to drive your car.
Nope
6. You spend more on car insurance than on house payments.
No house payments, insurance...once in a blue moon
) 7. You look in a state police car and see a picture of your car taped to the dash.
Not Yet...Working On That
16. You get pulled over for doing 155 in a 35 but the cops will let you go if "they can look under the hood."
Oh how i wish that happened to me before
17. You remove the $2000 stereo system to save 6 lb. of weight.
Yup done and done
23. 'significant other' won't even ride in the car.
No significant other at this time
( 24 There is no possible way to "sneak out" of your neighborhood at 6 am.
No possible way what so ever
25. Your pets scramble for their hiding spots as soon as the garage door is opened. (Pets, and all the neighbors...)
No Garage At The Moms House Where The Pet Stays
29. The only spot on the car which receives any regular cleaning is the windshield. (what else is there to clean???)
And thats if it gets lucky
30. You find out that side mirrors don't hold up at speeds exceeding 145 mph.
Real Cars Have No Working Guages except for a tach
) But in reality, we all know... YOU CAN NEVER HAVE TOO MUCH HORSEPOWER!
