It's soooooo long that I hope someone had the idea to cram a jacuzzi and a ballroom inside! It reminds me of crazy ideas taken out from some Tex Avery's MGM cartoons, with the lewd worlf and the curvaceous pin-up girl drawn by Preston Blair. The wolf never got the girl in them, but I fear reality should be quite different nowadays...
About the rich and the children, this sounds like some Irish saying to my foreign ears. Which reminds me suddenly of a song by Frank Zappa, Catholic girls, but this is definitely another subject! ;-)
Well, I'm sorry I can't say anything about your lens. Do you have anything you need to cover this specific range or do you plan to go on shooting exclusively by wide-angle lenses and get closer to your subjects?
I wonder what the driver would have said had you put your camera right under his nose and caught your reflection on the shiny paint... *o)
Cheers...

By the way, did you receive my cropping experiments?

I appreciate it that you didn't give the car any space in front of it, to move forward, this way it stresses the enormous length of the car. I like it that you link it to your busstop picture. You know I'm in favour of public transport, but if it's the only way to get around in the US, it's a bit bitter, and it says enough about the state of your wealth.
As for the lens:
If you don't need the money, don't sell it, (as we say here: it doesn't eat bread), and you might find it handy sometimes to have a lens like this. But this is all just my 0,0005 cent worth, nothing more, I am really not the one to advice in a matter like this.
Enjoy your weekend, take care.
