the best day ever
gotta drive an 03 aston martin vanquish w/ 8300 miles on it yesterday. it made my dad. only gotta drive it about 50 feet 
but still and while im doing the inspection i get to the gas cap pressure part of the test and none of our caps fit so i had my manger come over and double check and he grabbed the cap (its a heavy *** metal cap by the way) and dropped it on the freaking car. he got lucky as hell that it didn't damage the car, and the owner didn't seem pissed which i was suprised, if it was me i would have called corporate instantly about not being careful w/ a 250k car. but boy did that car sound great, it has paddle shifters (no shifter in the center) you pull the + and - shifters in for neutral and then you can engage reverse from a button on the dash. i took a photo of the car w/ my phone ill get it uploaded soon but that definitely made my day most likely my week by getting to drive such a nice car.

Congrats! November of last year I had a Ferrari F430 FOR THE NIGHT!!!! Talk about flying on cloud 9!! I beat the snot out of that car and all it did was ask for more. who in their right mind loans me a 200K dollar car and says "have fun."

Haaa. No, just a down to earth good guy that has made a darn good living in the insurance business before he was 40yrs old.

that's how you know that guy had money. i've found the truly rich are some of the nicest people out there. they have enough money that if you mess something up they will just buy a new one or don't mind fixing what was messed up. that is the mentality of a lot of them but they don't rub it in your face either.
