That is funny. How many young folks borrowed Mom and Dads car to go up to Mulholland? I did many time's in between down time with my own cars. I guess I should be asking how many of our parents cars came back from Mulholland with a "story" attached to it. Hummmmmmmm....a lot
I picture BIG American cars like Buick's, Cadillacs, Pontiac's, Custom Cruisers and Country Squire wagons.....
1) Hubcaps missing
2) Tires with rounded or cupped outside tread blocks.
3) Bent wheels
4) 3/4 of a tank of gas gone awol (really poor mileage!!!)
4) Burning smells
5) Kleenex box's crushed by feet
6) Items in trunk relocated by inertia
6) Headlamps mysteriously aimed high
on and on and on..........
If they only knew?
