*ahem*
And as for driving a fire engine, having worked on an ambulance I can say that there's a certain rush to be had while driving up Lake Shore Drive in Chicago at 80mph with the siren blaring, watching people just get out of your way (and yelling at those who don't).

I learned to drive from a moonshiner.
I think that pretty much covers everything.
I can do neat things like whip a car around at a fairly high speed and slide in to a parking space sideways. I figure that's why they put the curb there. Right? To stop the skidding car and bring it to a halt?
I graduated from the Steve McQueen school of driving. :D
I owned a VW van for years as my daily driver. It was slow, safe, and sane.
But some times a man needs speed. Am I right fellas?
And for the record, I have drove cross this country in a hair less than three days. (2 1/2 maybe) From SC to Spokane WA. I think most folks can do the math. I did that in a 1976 Pontiac Grand Prix. With a 455. It was borrowed. I cut through along the gulf coast, Tejas, over to Cali, and then right up the Pacific Coast Highway. Good times those.
All alone, or in twos,
The ones who really love you
Walk up and down outside the wall.
Some hand in hand
And some gathered together in bands.
The bleeding hearts and artists
Make their stand.
And when they've given you their all
Some stagger and fall, after all it's not easy
Banging your heart against some mad buggers wall.
"Isn't this where...."
