There is excitement and then there is the level of excitement this teenager showed when he was surprised by his parents with a brand new car.

T.J. Hannah, 17, of Saltillo, Mississippi, thought he may get a car when he graduates from high school next year.

Instead, he was surprised on Sunday with a brand new Dodge Challenger. Hannah celebrated by running a celebratory lap around his yard and then giving his dad a giant hug.

The teen's dad, Tony Hannah, was supposed to get a new car himself, but decided to give one to his son instead so he can eventually take it to college with him, according to Bettye Hannah, T.J.'s mom.
