When you blow those 17 candles in front of your family and friends, you know that you’ve grown up. A lot of things come with that age: your first ID card, your first driver’s license and a few steps closer to independence. But what’s a license without an actual ride? Imagine your parents walking towards you - and gives you a big surprise!

A little box is given and at the same time, someone whispers you to go outside. Your heart is pounding faster than ever. As you go out, the crowd then cheers for you to open your present.
When you open the box, it’s a key, with four letters on it: F - O - R - D. The hippest car today, the Ford Fiesta is parked before you! Out of excitement you rushed to the driver’s seat and sit down, and you can officially yell, “It’s my car!!!”
