Like watching your first born leave the nest.

After four months of work and three thousand "testing" miles I heard the words today the "parent" never wants to hear..."Honey, I want to drive MY car".

So I handed my wife her key to the 560, pointed out a few of the controls (ACC, stereo [and taught the key jiggle ]). Then sat in my garage chair and watched her drive off . I mean hell I've kinda got accustomed to that ride.

OH well, I did buy it for her to drive and I'm sure if I ask nice she'll let me go get a gallon of milk in it some late night.
