    Who would you leave your car to.


    Right now I am undecided. It would go to a "True Mavericker"

    Possibilites are

    John Ford
    Lonnie
    or anybody in the MCG for that matter.

    It just has to go to somebody that will appreciate it.

    So that leaves RadMav off the list.:D

    Ya know? This is a good question, and one that I have thought about many times. Unfortunately, I come up with the same answer every time; I can't think of anyone whom I would leave it to. Some of my friends & relatives are not into Mavericks, and some of the others who do like Mavericks, would not take care of it. I know this because they don't take care of their own cars and stuff, so there is no way I am leaving this car to them...

    Now that is a very good question. If anything should happen to me, my husband would get my Mavericks. I have no doubt that he would know what to do with them. Keep them! Now if something should happen to both of us, his daughter would get them, but I seriously doubt she would have a clue what to do with them. That's a scarey thought. On the other hand, we have a very good friend who is a true blue Ford man. I know for a fact he would take extremely good care of them and never run them into the ground. Yup.:yup: I definitely would want him to get the cars.

    for me it would be my daughter Kristy. she loves the car and helped sometimes with it. plus she never gets rid anything, if only you could see her room.

    Anna gets mine, but she would just drive it, never work on it. She does not know what to do with it.

    I just hope that she can nail down another car guy when I am gone to finish it up, or at least get it painted one color:D

    I'd say my boys would get it, but you can't split a car three ways. So probably my buddy Carl...he's not a Ford guy, but he always stuck with me and knows my car almost as well as I do.

    I've instructed my wife to sell it and use the $ to pay off our daughter's prepaid college savings plan.

    MY uncle would help my wife sell all my toys and hopefully put the money away to help her and my boy out in later times. At least thats what I asked them to do but when I`m gone how am I gonna know.

    it looks like everyone thinks their car is worth something.
    it is ...to us...:hmmm: think about it.:yup: most would be parked or be ran in the ground. first thing that happens to it they would park it in a field not to be sold...sound familiar .
    is everyone going to have their cars finished before they go :huh:

    ...:bouncy: ...

    Thanks, Frank. I'll call my attorney tomorrow and tell him I don't need to make those changes to my will. Thanks for saving me that fee.:D
