Another post so soon, you say? I know! But I had to get this one on while still fresh. (feel free to read the last post if you haven't yet...) We have been wanting a new car. My husband has family that are car salesmen & they have been keeping their eyes open for us. Well, last wednesday (exactly one week ago today), we went to look at this one. It's a 98 Lincoln Navigator. It has had only one owner who took amazing care of it. The car has UNDER 100,000 miles, and has never even missed an oil change. It was marked at $10,000, we got it for $6,000. Awesome deal, right? Right. So we bought it, and immediatly christened it "MONSTER" or "THE BEAST"
So today we were in a shopping center parking lot. We were in the left hand turning lane, when the car in the right hand turning lane decided to turn left instead. She was talking on the phone, and "didn't see us." (We later noticed that she didn't have any side view mirrors) Waf happened to see a police car in one of the stores parking lots & told the girl to pull in there so we could get the info. In the mean time I called the cops. We were heading off to park, and she TAKES OFF!!! Waf floors it and follows her. She pulls back into the shopping center, and gets out of her car. She asks us not to call the cops because she "didn't have insurance." When she found out I was already talking to the cops, she jumped in her car & sped away again! By now Waf is pissed, and he is not someone you should ever make mad. So he floors it, rides her tail, honking and yelling all the way. She pulls over again, gets out of her car again, and tells us "she'll pay for it, she just can't afford an insurance ticket." Waf flat out tells her that he doesn't trust her cuz she's already taken off twice. She heads back to her car, and he follows. He goes to grab the keys so she can't take off again. She freaks out, and starts kicking and cussing at him. Mind you, she's a 19 year old, extremely petite white girl. Now think of Waf. He wasn't having that. He pinned her arms down and grabbed the keys. I was still on the phone with the police at this point, but i saw what was happening & I ran over to get Waf away from her. She spit on him in front of me, then had the nerve to say that "we were crazy." That's about when the cops showed up. This story ends with her being cuffed & hauled away. Apparently she has numerous warrants out, along with new charges for lack of insurance and attempted hit-and-run. The cops were very happy and extremely cordial after that arrest.
The sad part is the damage to our new Navi, Monster. Those of you who know us know that it has never taken long for us to add dents to our new vehicles, but ONE WEEK? That's a new record, even for us!

LOL! You guys are cursed with being invisible in your cars. Nice car BTW. Road trip you say? Love that Waf was stuck in the middle of a scene from C.O.P.S. Dashboard camera is needed.
Wow.....what a crazy story....hahaha made me laugh picturing Waf trying to be calm and then losing his temper to that annoying 19 year old girl! I agree with the comment above that would have totally been a camera on the dash board moment! Haha. Nice ride by the way....Jr & Tina were telling us about it..... I feel like we haven't seen u guys forever, hope everything is good! Love u guys!
