Didn't miss that at all.

I have a question. When you offered to lend the car was your intention to let your friend have it for a week or more? Did you think he would just borrow it to run errands and have it back in a few hours.

My friend was upfront and asked if he could borrow it for a week. Especially when he told me why he wanted it. There was no way i would ever have said no.I've known him for several years and i fully trust him with the car. I have always believed in honesty and so do many of my friends.

I mean when you origionally offered to let him borrow.

I rashly promised a friend he could borrow my car anytime.

Was your intent that it could be any length of time? What if he said two weeks? Or 3?

Another aspect is how often do you use your car. Do you drive to work everyday? You can live in a city like Chicago or New york and really never need a car and just use it for trips to the suburbs or special occasions.

MrSnook!. Admittedly i never thought he'd ever want to borrow it for a week. At the time i thought a day or two. But a family reunion is a good reason for me to let him have it. He can have it for as long as he needs. I am not possessive about my car and it wouldn't be the first time. I've lent my car to someone. and i do use the car for work everyday. I only live 5 miles from my work so i may even get my old bicycle out.The exercise won't do me any harm lol. Or catch a bus.

Or even create a few more videos!

And maybe someone from the mill will give you a lift when they realize you are without a car.
