Jacob Goff’s wish is parked in his driveway.
It’s a red 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo, tricked out with new wheels, roof rack, bumper and a winch that looks capable of uprooting tree trunks.
It was just an ordinary Jeep until recently. It took a cancer diagnosis to transform his ride.

wait a minute... he's cancer free but still got a wish? maybe they should take the wish back if you get better.
remember those VW commercials where the guy from Fargo unpimped the autos? I love those commercials.
sorry... i've been drinking some really good vodka. i should not comment on blogs under the influence.
Surely one of these headlines should include the verb "pimp."

If a variation of "pimp" hadn't appeared in the actual title, perhaps.
Don`t be jealous Ces, one day you could get cancer too.
And don`t forget it`s Bruce`s fault.
Given that your piece on teenager's requests to make-a-wish foundation originally ran last year, do you think it is possible that your "pimp my Pontiac Fiero" could have actually *inspired* this kid? Maybe he's one of your loyal readers
