Great first time out story. Now just wait until the time you get  
pulled over by the police so they can check out the car. I know  
several people that have had this happen it at first it is a real  
scare, you start looking at the speedo and all the rest check to see  
what you have done wrong. Only to find out the the officer just want  
to check out a nice car.
