    My oldest daughter. God love her.

    For Father`d Day I gave her a list (of 3 items) of car care products that I wanted. I numbered them to show her which items I wanted most to least. Well bless her heart she bought me one bottle of Bazooka Tire Gloss.The next product I pulled out of the box was 4 Star`s Paint Cleaner. Then I pulled out a 4 Star`s Ultimate Paint Protector. I noticed another bottle in the box. I was somewhat confused as I knew the list contained only 3 items. So I reached in and pulled out another bottle of 4 Star`s Paint Cleaner. As I was pulling out the paint cleaner I saw another bottle. So I pulled that one out also. It was another bottle of 4 Star`s paint protector. Thinking Dwayne made a mistake on the order I checked the packing slip. Well the order was correct. I asked her why she bought me two bottles of paint cleaner and protector. She told me my list said one bottle of Bazooka Tire Gloss, two bottles of 4 Star`s Paint Cleaner and 3 bottles of 4 Star`s Ultimate Paint protector. She said she ran out of money that`s why I only got two bottles of paint protector instead of three. I laughed and told her they were numbered in priority not how many I wanted. I gave her 25 dollars for the paint cleaner and protector. Oh how I love that girl. Rick

    I think you need to get out there and clean her car up for her now and maybe teach her how, then you could "share" the extra stuff

    Good daughter. My kids got me an air compressor. I was totally blown away. I was expecting a tie and socks.

    :lol What a pleasant surprise! Eric`s right, now`s the time to share the wealth and teach her how to use the UPC/UPP on her own car.

    You`re right. I still need to do her car from May. I will stop by today and ask her when I can do it and see if she`s interested in taking care of her car or does she want dear old dad to continue to go solo.

    Thanx stainbuster. I would`ve wished every father a Happy Father`s Day yesterday but I never got on the computer. Yes she is a sweetheart. All three of my girls have blessed me beyond words. Rick
