   I had a Sprite, the AH version of the Midget. While giving my brother in   
   law a ride one evening he asked 'how does this little piece of shit   
   handle?' I did a 180 and motored off in the opposite direction. "Oh"   
      
   His father had a thing for Checkers and he destroyed a couple of them.   
   Couldn't drive for shit. He managed to roll one outside of Mayfield KY in   
   '69 when we were supposedly headed for Mexico. High times in Mayfield!   
   Everyone in town went down to the garage to ogle the big, silver wreck.   
   "Is that one of them that Mercedes Benzs?"
