Man who walks 21 miles to work surprised with new car

James Robertson is the Detroit man who walks 21 miles to and from work every day and has been doing so for 10 years. It all started with a story in Sunday's Detroit Free Press and has blossomed into a phenomenon. A complete stranger even started a GoFundMe for Robertson, which has now collected more than $300,000.The outpouring of support for the so-called 'Walking Man' continues to roll in, and Friday he was surprised with a new car at Suburban Ford in Sterling Heights.
Robertson, 56, was greeted with a round of applause at the dealership Friday.
He looked as if he might cry as he checked out his new car, a red Taurus.
He says he doesn't just like his new car, "I love it," he said.
Finally a new ride for the man whose 1988 Honda sedan broke down 10 years ago. view pictures after the cut...

 Congrats to him, but wait o does this mean if we start walking to work abroad for some years people will buy us cars? lol. not in Naija sha.
