We have a sport-utility vehicle that is old enough to make us start thinking about what kind of vehicle we might want to buy in the future. Of course, we have to take Anthony's seating into account. Not only is he a stocky kid who takes up more room than his siblings would like, he can be annoying to them and even dangerous depending on his mood. And even if neither of his siblings are present, he has been known to reach over the seat and try to hurt others in the row in front of him, which means we need three rows to provide a buffer between him and the driver. As third-row head clearance varies considerably between models, we have been looking forward to going to the annual auto show to check out a lot of vehicles at the same time with Anthony in tow.
Here is a picture of Anthony at the show. He appears to enjoy it, and seems to like sitting in the cars, even to the point that he stands by one waiting to get in even if we were just perusing from outside with the intent of moving on.
We told Anthony to "smile". Not too bad, I suppose, for not understanding the concept....
