My filthy mind was expecting something less serious!
very nice of you to do...I'm sure he'll ride some cool stuff in Iraq as well! My brother in law just got back from a tour in Afghanistan (he's a major) and my nephew is there now.
But neighter one is overly interested in my cars!

Here's a little background on Chandler from his friend:
"He's a Political Science Major from Seattle University. At the age of 28, he was an account manager for a local IT Hardware/Networking supplier and did REALLY well for himself and had a good career. He decided he wanted to serve his country before he wasn't able to any longer. So he enlisted in the Army, went to airborne school and he's in the Army's 82nd Airborne 3rd Brigade. He went from being an account manager to jumping out of airplanes. He deploys to Iraq until the projected pull out date of December 31st, but I'll believe that when I see it. He's unsure where he's going after that because he's scheduled for a year deployment. Possibly Afghanistan after that.
It's easy for other dudes on the internet to tell you to toss the keys of a $300,000 car to a complete stranger. Believe me when I say he was MORE than happy, thankful and greatful just to ride shotgun."
