That's where he really came into his own. Speaking of his own, Stretch has his own car which he uses to take his friends around. How about that, fellows - is it bumpy or smooth? Too bad he won't be able to take his car along with him when he joins the Navy, but we're sure Stretch'll make a fine swabie, anyway.
