I go to work as usual, ok work that's an important part. I'm a police officer. I'm driving around noon just enjoying a nice slow day when I notice this nice L. So I start to see how clean it is and that it must be loved. I look up and see this "pumpkin pie haircutted freak", actually a male 20's PURPLE spikey hair, 4 inch fu man choo goatee (purple also, and who says matching isn't important).

I think to myself ok, nice..... (rolling my eyes).

So I pull in behind the truck for S & G (****s and giggles) really impressed how clean it is. Then I decide to run the plate and see the owners name, make sure it's not stolen, etc. When all of the sudden I realize something. It's my plate. Actually to be correct it's my L!

Ok a day before I had dropped it off for some vacuum line repairs. So now I see this kid barely old enough to buy booze driving my little baby (3yrs old barely 10K on it) around. Talking on the phone, knoding his head to music, and leaning on one arm against the window.

So I preceed to follow him. He's taking dips slow and making every signal count. Ok I've been made. I'm in a black and white with lights on top. Trust me, everyone watches when you're "no one's friend". So I follow this kid for 5-6 blocks until I realize that he's pulling back into the dealership.... Time to have some fun...

I put on my black sunglasses (PS I'm not the short fat cop that you might hope for, I'm the one who looks like he's going to rip your head off for fun.... although that's just the look and I can't help to check out muscle cars whenever I get the chance) turn on the overheads and pull this kid over.

I walk up and ask him how he' s doing... "Fine sir."

How is your truck running today "Fine sir."

No problems with it eh? "No sir"

Is it fast? "uhhhhhhhh sir?"

Fast, your truck, is it fast??? "uh I'm just fixing it... sir."

This is when I had to let him off the hook, and said "yeah, I know it's my truck". Luckily he started to breath again. I checked his nametag and he was the same person that I spoke with over the phone earlier. Nice kid, good wrench too. We chatted for another 20 minutes on mods for the L. He told me to call him when I plan on working on it and he'd give me a hand.

Ended up he had a pretty cool muscle car too. he got back to work and told everyone what had happened. Oh it was nice to make sure they did a good test drive of my truck (not beat the hell out of it for a change)

In conclusion all I can do is flashback to Ferris Buhlers Day Off when they turn that Ferrari over to the parking attendant who wipes it down with a rag and says "oh, I'll take special care of it... sir".

(he no cop Q's your in the wrong forum for that)

Cheers.

 

Pumpkin pie is purple where you come from?!

P.S., 10 points for misspelling FIVE words in a row ("foo man choo gotee, puple")!!

 

Pumpkin pie hair cutted freak... actually is a quote from Dumb and Dumber. When they get pulled over by the cop.....

And you'd be quite if you knew what was good for ya'. (same quote)

Thanks for the info on the misspellings..... mom.

 

ha, what a great story. I only hope I am so lucky when and if I ever take my truck into the dealer!

 

oops, does that make me dumber than dumber?

And it's "quiet" not "quite"

 

I'll go back and practice my typing and spelling.... after I finish racing.

 

Hopefully not on the street, officer!

 

nevermind

 

Hehe, I knew I recognized that line from somewhere, " Pumpkin hair....". Man that movie is funny.

Hey Truckn, you forgot to capitalize and you left out a period.

JK

 

HOW'S THIS? AND THIS: .



Whew, thanks bud

 

You welcome buddy.

 

driving down 95 in Rhode Island when all in the sudden i see the huge bug on the roof of the building(it's in the movie)....i start cracking up and me and my buddy start quoting lines. " We're really doing it harry, we're doing it!!" Needles to say while pointing and laughing my L changed lanes unexpectedly. We were lucky!!! Just a story.
