The Batmobile


So in an effort to get our lives on track and be able to start a family, my fiance has started to go back to school. Yes, at 28 Anthony is a freshman.

Today was his first very loong day back at school.

After we were done doing the very boring, mundane life duties for the day we headed over to my dad's house for his birthday dinner.

He's 51 today.

The only real request made by Anthony so far is that the getaway car be the Batmobile. now i dont know if he asked that of me because he knows its impossible, or as a joke, but i took it seriously. I mean how cool would it be to drive away in the friggin Batmobile.

So I start a google search to see how much it would cost to rent a mock up for a day....

While there are an abundance of Batmobiles to rent in England and even a couple in California. There is only one batmobile in Dallas. Its owned by Russ Martin. good luck trying to rent that. but in an effort to make him happy i actually emailed the guy. no response as of yet. all of ya'll should email him and try to convince him :)

So as an alternative, we considered renting an Astin Martin and go out Bond style. There are a couple of places in Dallas and Plano that will let you rent luxury cars. What they dont tell you on the billboards is that they are 1500 for a couple of hours!

for a car

that you'll drive for a couple of mins.

No thanks.

So the search continues. If you find a batmobile let me know. until then...

Im batman!

  1. Hey, doesn't Russ Martin have a radio show? Maybe he would like to use your wedding as a show, and lend you the car. After all, you are getting married in a bat castle, and your wedding night hotel is only two blocks away. He could follow you with his crew and make sure his baby batmobile stays safe. :)
