Yes, absolutely. Take care of yourself and Kermit, too.
Wasn't there another Spitfire that was recently run off the road as well; by
an Explorer. Seems to me it was a yellow1500 , I believe. I find it
curious that the collisions seem to involve vehicles running into "our"
Spits. I'm not the paranoid kind, but I seem to sense when I'm in traffic
that there is some kind of value judgement/intimidation going on. Seems
like they pull up on my rear bumper a little closer than they do when I
drive my Honda. Maybe I'm wrong.
There is such a thing as vehicle-based hatred/envy that some people 'act
out' on. First experienced this when I drove my new Expedition.
