"I'M TEACHING EM!" Stan shouted.

"STANLEY FOR THE LAST TIME I'M THE ONE WHO SHOULD TEACH THEM!" Ford retorted back.

"You've taught them plenty of stuff sixer! I want a turn teaching them something!" Stan exclaimed.

"I would hardly call the occasional lab experiment and homework assistance teaching them stuff Stanley…. besides you've taught them plenty of stuff too, need I remind you of how you spent months teaching Mabel how to do the slide of hand trick to con customers?" Ford said with a sly grin.

"That was strictly business sixer…. she's still got that girlish cuteness that makes her prime to con the suckers, but this…. this is a milestone of growing up and frankly there is no one better to teach them…. after all if I can teach bears to do it I can teach them!"

"Stanley you know I don't like bringing up your criminal past, but you've racked up quite a few tickets in your days, meanwhile my record is spotless,"

"Uh yeah says the guy who hopped dimensions for thirty plus years! Did they even have cars where you were?" Stan asked curious.

"Hoover cars for your information, and my record remained spotless even there!" Ford retorted.

Unbeknownst to the old men Dipper and Mabel had been listening to the whole argument from behind the doorway. They had to stifle giggles, they hated seeing the old men argue, but they had to admit it was amusing seeing their enthusiasm towards the next chapter in their lives. They finally figured that they needed to settle this argument and entered the room with amused grins on their faces.

"Now boys there is plenty of Dipper and I to go around, no need to fight over us," Mabel said authoritatively.

Stan and Ford couldn't help but smile at their adoptive daughter's kind sense of humor.

"Honestly I don't get why you guys are arguing when the answer is so obvious…. two teens…. plus two old men," Dipper stated with just a hint of playful arrogance.

Stan and Ford suddenly looked at each other and smiled.

"That's it sixer! I'll teach Mabel and you can teach Dipper…That way we can both teach one of them, and plus we will know by the end who the better teacher is!" Stan said putting his arm around Mabel as he ushered her towards the Stan-mobile.

Ford had to admit he was a little nervous letting Mabel go with Stan, but he knew his brother wouldn't let this friendly competition go, he also knew that despite his spontaneous tendencies that he would never endanger the kids.

"This isn't a competition Stanley!" Ford reminded as he ushered Dipper towards his own station wagon, "it will be far too easy for it to be a competition," Ford whispered under his breath.

Mabel wasted no time hopping into the driver's seat of the Stan-mobile, as she instantly rushed to adjust the car to fit her frame. Stan had promised her that when she passed her drivers test that he would gladly share the car with her, and she very much looked forward to making it her own.

Dipper was about to hop into Ford's car to do the same when he was stopped.

"Not so fast Evel Knieval!" Ford said grabbing the boy's shoulders.

"Ummm Ford if your gonna teach me to drive, shouldn't I actually get into the car?" Dipper playfully asked.

"Not until you learn the mechanics! The best way to prepare to do anything is to learn it from the outside in," Ford said as he popped open the hood.

"Wait….you're gonna have me take apart this whole car….." Dipper said crestfallen.

"Just the engine! It will help you understand the car better!" Ford said with a look of giddiness on his face.

Stan rolled down the window on the passenger side of the car

"NNNEEEEERRRRRDDDDDD" He playfully jested as he and Mabel hit the open road, leaving poor Dipper in the literal dust.
