Few of my friends drive anything younger than 8 yrs old.

Just replaced my wife's 16 year old (1996) Mystique - daughter's
boyfriend is driving it while he waits for insurance settlement on his
stolen 2005 C300H. It was a replacement for her 22 year old (1988) New
Yorker.

My ex drives a 97 Saturn. (15 yrs)

My first car was 15 years old when I bought it from Dad. (63
Fairlane) My second car was a year older - a 62 Falcon. Only it was
ten years later, so it was a "classic".
Then I got a 10 year old Toyota, which I drove for eleven years.

Sigh. I'll know when I get rich because I can afford Suggest
Retail Price.


No, you'll know you're rich when you walk in to the Killing Room at
the local Car Stealership and say "See this wad of Green Folding Cash
I have here? I already have three other offers for identical
vehicles - Forget the Sticker, what's your REAL price?"


That's absolutely the way to do it, but you can fool the jerks with a
wad of mostly ones if you want to be dirty about it. g


My German Teacher called what you describe as a "Feeby (FBI)
Bankroll." She then reverse the wad so the dollar bill was on the
outside "And this is a Scottish Bankroll".

Go not to the Net for answers, for it will tell you Yes and no. And
you are a bloody fool, only an ignorant cretin would even ask the
question, forty two, 47, the second door, and how many blonde lawyers
does it take to change a lightbulb.
