Give a kid a ride!

Today I wash up my 93 ty aka rus-ty, and was out and about part chasing. When stopped at a light near my house I hear a young kids voice yell out, "Mom. mom a Typhoon!!!!!!!!." I look over smile rev it a bit and go to take off. When I look over to see the expression on the kids face and see him crying and being held by his mother.

At this point I feel like crap making a little kid cry. So I pull into the parking lot to see if I could help. I find out his father had passed away a couple years back and just before he did they sold his 92 typhoon to help with medical expenses. So I ask if they would like a ride home( they were walking) She agreed after assuring her I am an eagle scout and a good guy not some crazy person.

Took them back to their house did a couple nice pulls (kid was grinning ear to ear) and she gave me some cookies. :tup:

I guess it kind of reminds me of the ads and such about take a kid to a car show. Just thought I would share cheared up my day for sure.

Hahaha yeah it was pretty cool, a lot better ending then thinking I made a little kid cry. And what can I say we Minnesotans are nice (unless in traffic).

Spooldup speaks the truth for almost all of us, but it is worth it in the end.

The least you could have done was share a cookie with the tow-truck driver...
