Default where did I fail??

ok. the Barbie jeep died a slow, slow death. Sooo, hubby took little cobra girl to toys r us to replace it. She knew what she wanted; A RACECAR!!! Well, seems to be they were fresh outta blue cobras, so they came home with a VETTE!!! yellow, at that.
The only redeeming quality? an AER sticker over the back quarter panel! Thought you'd get a chuckle out of this....

We just took our son (he's turning 3) to Toys R Us and it was between the Vette, the Kawasaki quad and the Fire Rescue Truck (I wanted to get him something with a real gas engine, but couldn't sell the wife on it - probably for the best). I was able to steer him away from "the dark side" by emphasizing the fact that the Fire Rescue Jeep has a water cannon. The Vette was really nice though - maybe you can get the Kirkhams to do a body kit for it! You could hide speakers in the sidepipes and replace the FM radio with a CD player. Then burn a CD with some nice Cobra exhaust sounds and... Well, you get the picture!

Is it real?



BTW: Look! It leaks oil already! Just like a Chevy to do that...

Kristen,

That is one very pretty little girl. Is the car battery powered? I got a friend of mine's daughter a Dale Earnheart battery powered car that has two forward speeds and one reverse. Top speed is about 20MPH. She was doing power slides within three days. Drives better than her Father.

Right. A cell phone and then she could run into Mom's Cobra and have an excuse.

Looks like she made out.

Just wait till she's 16 and wants a real one.

Better than that, the cobra.

yeah, it's battery powered. Wouldn't have minded the Dale E. one, for sure! I think it's great she wanted a racecar! Not another barbie jeep, or something. When the boys were little, they had a 3 wheeled motorcycle- harley i think- powered by 'power wheels' battery, too. This only has a top speed of 5 +- mph. She wishes she had a cell phone. and yeah, she might be 'the sleeper'. I worry about my sons with the cobra- but she is in it way more than the boys- might end up being her car in the long run!!! I hadn't thought of that, before... thanks, tru!

is it real??? yeah, real plastic! and I think those are water spots, as the last i checked, the oil gaskets looked tight....
or maybe, it's dripping from a little shower with the garden hose!!!
K
one more shot....

Get the barbed wire out now and start with the perimeter.

You should send Don Barns a copy of this picture since he is covered up with yellow Vetts. I think his CC is Cobra42

It's alright Kristen. The only way you could justify a Cobra body for your girl would be to hang it over a shifter cart. Wouldn't want her starting out on that yet, would you?
