No more a teenager!!

It has been quite a while since I wrote anything about the love of my life, my Ford Ikon. Yes, all this while we have been together, I never realized when the time and the miles flew away. I guess it was only a matter of time before she came out of her teenage and reached the important milestone of 20K.

I had always been fond of Ford vehicles and when Ikon hit the Indian markets a long time back, it was my immediate favorite. Since then I had a secret desire to own an Ikon at some point in my life and on that wonderful day of June the twenty-second I finally managed to realize my childhood dream.

Having driven my Car for so long, I have come to realize how it is not just a piece of machinery. I have realized how much like a human, can a car be. It is quite like another woman in your life, which takes amazing care of you if you keep her happy and can be painfully tough to handle when upset.

There definitely is this connection between you and the car that you own which cant be put into words. You just know when it is in the pink of its health and when it is down with a fever. It does not take you long to realize how your vehicle is feeling on any given day and you just learn to adjust with it automatically. You know which pothole can bruise your vehicle and which one's she can just glide over. It's the most amazing feeling to be in a relationship with someone when everything is understood implicitly without ever saying a word.

Yes, I know, I do sound like I m in love and to tell you the truth, I actually am. It was the sole reason that I took my sweetheart on a trip to Goa, to celebrate an important pitstop in the journey that we had embarked upon a long time back. I never know how can I ever let go of you....Thanks for being there with me....Always !!
