Send my car to Lingenfelter, or something of that sort. Build a 2 car garage onto the house and put the rest of the money up..

Im pretty sure mcdonalds doesnt bring in as much money PER STORE as people think. It looks like they make alot of money bc they have 30000+ restaruants. and bc most are open 24 hrs as subway is only open till 10-11? mcdonalds only has about a 15% profit margin, and subway as ~25% profit margin. I'd pick a subway over mcd.

Buy a nice house around the Heights and add a little shop off to the side then use the rest to buy some other property east of downtown since that area is booming with new town homes growth.

Edit: finish up my damn degree before I hit 40, lol.
