Kids, Do some funny things! Options

[ETNRIDER]

So my daughter is almost 14 months old now. She finally is big enough to sit facing forward. She also is talking a lot more saying Mama, Daddy, puppy, keys, etc. Well Sunday we got back from the beach and the family car was full of stuff still so I put her in the back of my Celica for the first time. She fit pretty good and liked looking up at the hatch glass. Anyway I backed up out of my driveway and went thought our neighborhood at about 20 mph. I pulled out on to the main road and got on it a little (hey it’s a Celica) to get up a traffic speed, about 55 mph. Right around 45 mph my daughter lets out a big WEEEEEE! I turn around shocked at first and she has both hands up in the air and proceeds to clamp after I back off the throttle. I laughed so hard, I don’t think I have ever laughed so hard in my life. I had to pull over and take a minute. Kids are so much fun! Just thought I would share this will everyone.

Glad to see someone enjoys the power of the Celica!!

I hear you on the chances, I bought a 2008 Kia Optima just for the little girl. I have not had her is the Celica for fear of all the idoits out there. Your daughter will be enjoying riding in your Celica before you know it!!

Woulda had a heart attack if she asked you "Where's the boost?" [<- sounds like the old Wendy's comercials ]
My two boys are 11 and 13 and they know exactly what car they want when they get old enough - mine. Hell no. I told them if they worked for it we'd start with a 5th or 6th gen and maybe right before college we'd add some boost - maybe. They're freakin crazy enough as it is.

Sound like good kids! I am old enough and I want you car too!!!

Yeah, i figure when she's bigger, she can ride w/ the roof up; but i cant wait for her to be big enough we can roll to the beach w/ the top down blaring the music (it'll be a long time though, hell, she's only almost 7 months now)

BTW: we have an Altima for the little one I wont buy another kia. Fcuk that!!

Did you have an older KIA? I love ours and my Dad and a buddy went out and bought one after driving ours. I could not afford the Altima but Optima sounds close!

a 2001 kia sportage (click for pic)

For something with "sport" in the title, it had like 40hp. I was scared to get on the main roads with this thing, the 4wd was a joke; especially because i got it stuck in the yard THE FCUKING YARD!! it was dirt, just hard dirt. (hell i lived in a traitor park at the time) no grass, no mud, no water, no rocks, nothing, just dirt. Damn thing got 2 wheels stuck in a soft spot of dirt and spun out, the 4wd wasn't able to pull the weight of the truck out. there was something SERIOUSLY wrong with that truck. KIA = FTL. (IMO) sorry.

My wife got our altima used a few years back, it's been just as reliable as the Celica. WAY more reliable than the cougars. it's been taking my wifes abuse and keeps on truckin. Very nice, dependable car.
