John Winchester signed the ownership papers, shook the dealer's hand, and picked up the keys to his new vehicle. He and Mary had been talking about getting it for months, and now it was finally his. Soon, he would drive Mary to the lake where he would propose to her. Now however, he would settle for driving to her house to pick her up for their date.
He drove his purchase down to the Campbell residence, and honked the horn when he arrived to get Mary's attention. When he heard the front door open, he went over to proudly open the passenger door as Mary squealed over the vehicle which he and Mary would soon be sharing in their new life together...
In the year 2008, there is a roar of an engine as a black four door 1967 Chevy Impala with a black leather interior thunders down the road with two men inside. Rather than stopping at the cheap roadside motel as some would expect, it continued on flying by as if the no-tell motel didn't exist. Three minutes later, there is a far less impressive sound as a VW Minibus pulls into the motel parking lot.
The driver's side door opens and Dean Winchester pops out. A second later, his brother Sam hops out of the passenger's side, goes to the back and pulls out his duffel.
"One of these days Sammy, one of these days, I'm gonna get rid of this thing." Dean said as he kicked the tire of the minibus that had been in the family since 1973.
