Great story! And I love that she wants the car to go to someone who'll take care of it. Bonus points for sure.

Regards,

Dan

I saw an interview with her several years ago. She always bought lifetime warranty parts whenever possible. She was asked of she was afraid driving alone on the trips she would make. She replied, she wasn't. She kept her .38 with her everywhere she went. Pretty much ended the interview. I was laughing so hard at the news lady's expression.
