One weekend evening in the summer of 1976, while driving her mother home, a young lady named Ellen noticed Dennis and the Road Runner. Ellen pointed out the Road Runner to her mother, and as she gestured, Dennis noticed her.
After dropping her mother at home, Ellen stated she would take a little drive. She was soon back where she saw the Road Runner. Just minutes later, Dennis flagged down Ellen in her Firebird.
After their impromptu meeting, the Road Runner became a focal point in their courtship. Ellen used the Road Runner to drive her bride’s maids to be fitted for their gowns. Dennis and Ellen were married in December of 1976, and the Road Runner was the mode of transportation during the honeymoon. On the second day of the honeymoon, the Road Runner had to navigate through a couple of inches of snow, one of the few times it encountered the white stuff. A few years later, Dennis and Ellen brought their daughter home from the hospital in the Road Runner.
