Don't forget to add the gold jewelry.

We managed to get an S-2000 TRASHED one year and, unfortunatly it went to our store. Dents all over it. The driver's seat looked like an elephant had sat in it and the interior was totally scuffed up.
Some people simply don't care but I guess this is how they live.

You pay in steak dinners? I'll have to find you some needed information.
br - I KNEW you'd have one coming! I'll check out your site when it's up. I'm probably not doing it as soon as I'd like because the Celica, while cramped, is your basic free car - that is paid for and reasonably reliable. I'd sure like a 9-3 though...

I am constantly amazed at what some folks will do. Every time I think I've beyond the ability to shock a story like the cleats in the Volvo shows up.

The worst I had was when a woman of significant girth traded a old Caravan in for a new one. Her perfume was Au Natural Odor. She barely fit in the caravan with the seat back and the tilt wheel all the way up. This had to be back in the early 90s. She had a second vehicle which was an old Dodge Coronet. She said it was stored in her garage and could we come and get it. When I opened her garage door, I noticed the space was carpeted with about 2 feet of leaves. God only knows what creatures lived there. This car was not quite as odiferous as the old caravan trade was. We had it about 6 months and finally wholesaled it. Never could get the smell to anything one could tolerate without a mask.

I'm glad that your car purchase went so well. You forgot to tell us one thing. Did you ask for $28k or just take the $28,500 offer?

You could be right, but I only left the store about a year and half ago.

Subaru is just different, period. I've never purchased one, but I've always thought it'd be a pleasant experience. We've had a chance to talk with some Subaru-associated people in the course of doing special chats here, and it's been a positive experience. Who knows? It might be just as you remember it. Sometimes it's the company's management & their philosophy that makes all the difference for the workers & customers.

I felt that $28,500. was a fair offer so I didn't push any further for a better deal. Edmund's appraisal calculator says the dealer price should be $32,000., so it has nothing to do with the fact that I am a big WUS !!!

I must say that when you are good, you are very, very good.
And, that infers that when I am bad, I am really bad.
But, let me know when you are barbequing those steaks, we'll be there. We'll bring our trailer home and hook up to your electricity and plumbing. Just joking, but once we had a guy at a place where I worked and he would visit people unannounced and hook up his mobile trailer to their house, and park in their driveway.
