The Ridgeline
Dad has had the same old Honda Accord for a long long time. He has been wanting a Honda Ridgeline so we decided to put it to the test. Dad and I went to the Honda place to check it out and test drive. We pulled in a looked at all the Ridgelines parked beside each other. There was a deep red one, a bright white one and a few other colors. The one that stood out was the gorgeous gunmetal grey. We studied the car inside and out before we took it for a ride. The man that helped us was very kind and not the least bit pushy or rushed. We got in the car and started driving. It was smooth like the Pilot. The rear-view mirror had a compass on it and it was so cool. There was lots of room and everything was shiny and clean. All of the controls seemed so high-tech and cool. Dad drove with me in the passenger seat and the man in the back. We went up and down a hill which was really cool. We passed Grandma Judy’s house and we zoomed past a golf course. It wasn’t bumpy or anything like that, it was smooth sailing. Dad and I kept on playing with the moon roof. Open and close, open and close! Extra Time Before we left we checked out the S2000s. We sat it them and pretended we were driving. We checked out the seats and the controls and everything. It was really cool. I like the red the best. Yellow just didn’t seem to fit it right. We looked through some Ridgeline brochures and went on our merry way. Mustang Magic Oh yeah! We drove over to the Ford place because it was close to the Honda place. I’m really big on mustangs. They’re so cool. We acted like we were planning to buy one even though all we wanted was a ride. We chose a ‘stang and the guy went to get gas. During that time Dad took a picture of me in one of the really nice mustangs. We wandered around admiring the beauty. I don’t like Ford, but I love mustangs. The guy came back in the gorgeous black mustang, glistening in the light. Brand new 05 GT that wouldn’t stop saying my name. “J, you got shotgun.” It had a wonderful voice. I had to get in the back so that Dad could be the passenger while the guy drove. The black ‘stang started up, taking a huge breath before the beginning of his journey. Everyone got settled in and we drove down the road as the man explained some of the nicer features of the car. Eventually, we pulled over and switched places. I got into the passenger seat, Dad was in the drivers seat, and the man was in the back. We went up and down some hills, listening to the faint hum of the car. It was intense, yet relaxing. Exciting, yet calming. Everything in the front seat was fancy. From the air conditioners to the CD drive. The car would calmly come to a stop, and then fly into a faster gear when starting again. We eventually pulled into the parking lot of the Ford place, and we got out. We looked at the engine a bit and then left. It was an awesome day.
