Replying to: richard64 (Jan 11, 2009 9:13 am) Definitely hope all the best for Mac and he is often in my thoughts, whenever I go on this site. Miss him a lot, and he is a great inspiration to all that know him. |

Replying to: percussionist (Jan 11, 2009 8:31 am) I definitely will....hope it's better than the Crappler 300 I got 2 years ago. Last year we drove down in my own car, that was the best.

Replying to: richard64 (Jan 11, 2009 9:13 am) In watching the local ads in the KC area it appears that the deals are not as good as they were just before the end of the year (and before GM got their bail out money). By GM I mean General Motors, not Grand Marquis.  New car buying right now is something you have to be very, very careful with. Some are good deals and some are not. The automotive world is certainly going thru a shake-up right now. Go drive a Hyundai Genesis if you want a nice surprise. |

When shopping be sure to... Forget finding a babysitter. Bring your two year old twins with you! m Make sure one of them has the ability to scream at the top of his lungs. Encourage them to play in the cars that are in the showroom. Show them how to SLAM car doors and make sure they are able to find the horn. It's best if they are hungry and need a diaper change. Show them how their salesperson's calculator can do double duty as a hammer! Bring their filthy scummy car seats so you can fasten them into the four different used cars you want to drive. We just love this! Before leaving (without a car) make sure the chocolate milk one of them brought get's dumped on the salesperson's desk. |

Replying to: isellhondas (Jan 11, 2009 11:16 am) Fact of the matter is life would be boring if every customer came in, went for a 15 minute test drive, signed the papers and drove home. We wouldn't have any fantastic "sales stories".
