Do you let your friends drive it? – Ya.

Best memory – When I was younger, I got a teenage mutant ninja turtle and forgot to take it out of the car. Then every time my parents saw it they told me to take it in but I never did. Now, it’s about 5 years later and we feel that we can’t take him out because he has been in the car so long.
