I will now quit complaining about the RAIN that is POURING down!
 
I'll take 58 degrees and rain over extreme heat any time!

We are trying this new thing in our schools called air conditioning. Seems to work pretty well, regardless if it is a standard 105 degree day in August outside it is still nice and cool inside.

I'm glad that Larmar Alexander did SOMETHING for your schools when he was Secretary of Education. He certainly didn't do anything else for education in this country. In fact, he sent his children to private schools while he boasted about public schools in Tennessee. What a jerk.
 
To stay on topic: I bet that he didn't drive a Ford.

"...at what temperature does the much-complained-about cost of gas suddenly become less important..."
 
I think it would be the temperature that the engine over-heats and ruins itself at.

I would like to order one truck load of your 1:00 AM weather. Send it COD. I'm willing to pay.
 
I guess i did make it sound like I was complaining, but not really. I did build a fire in the wood stove today, then an hour later had the doors open becuase it got too hot.
 
I can tell you my tomato plants don’t like this weather, they need some of that southern heat.

"I have never seen a Toyota sticker/invoice before. What makes them so hard to comprehend? If they are any thing like ours they are pretty self explanatory. "
 
It's really very simple Joel. Some people don't have the capacity to understand simple English and basic math.
 
Back in the late 80's or early 90's Toyota was sued in California over "hidden fees". This suit required that Toyota Motor Sales USA list every fee on their invoices like dealer holdback, wholesale financial reserve, TDA, Destination Charge (called Delivery, handling, and processing fee on the Monroney sticker), and gasoline. This opened up a big can of worms since customers that have an invoice fetish and want to see the invoice always to not pay the fees. Before the lawsuit it was listed as:
Dealer invoice: Retail:
Base price: xxx Base price: xxxx
Options: xxx Options: xxxx
Freight xxx Destination charge: xxxx
________________ _____________________
 
Total xxxx Total xxxxx
