What is your favorite memory of the car? Jonathan: Whenever Dad was in the car and she said, “Your door is ajar,” Dad would respond, “No, it’s a door, 2214 244.1066.17 AAA Northeast Version A.indd 1 12/23/17 4:07 PM not a jar – and she’s supposed to be smart.” Haha! So funny. I also remember, one time, when Drew was fl ying into town (our fi rst car was a jet-black car, same style as some limousines), I cleaned it up, polished it, put on the black chauffeur outfi t and picked him up at the airport with a sign that read “Mr. Scott.” What happened to it? Drew: After about a year or so, we couldn’t stand the voice anymore, so we sold it to buy a beautiful red Thunderbird with power leather seats. It was so nice. We shared that for many years until, fi nally, we needed our own cars.
