[quote=“BigRon,post:20,topic:31220"”] Sean I will be home Saturday night and probably have people over, if you want to swing by. I might need some shifting pointers, reverse and starting from an incline will own me for a week im sure. As for the mommy and daddy paying for it, more power to the kid, just don’t expect to brag to someone who works full time out of school to pay for their beater and not expect to get there arse beat or his baby keyed. [/quote] hah yea i hear ya, both are probably gonna happen to the little hardass i mean its a beautiful car for sure, he just doesnt deserve it. i want one 😃 ---

nice car but GMAC insurance is a bunch of cock smokers. I got rear ended by one of their customers in october and still have not seen a dime. Not that it has anything to do with you unless you work with latasha or whatever the fuck her name is… And again very nice car ---

yes there are plenty of jobs but for the college grads with degrees. Not like its 10-15 years ago when Ford and GM were booming. I had to take some time from skool to deal with some of my moms health issues. Now I can get back on track and go back to college. ---

there are still jobs for people without degrees, if you have some skills, start networking. If you have no skills and no degree you are right though, you are SOL. ---

[quote=“93dx–hatch,post:27,topic:31220"”] “If you can finance it you can afford it” [/quote] I’m not making that mistake. I own my Saab and will be selling that plus cash so I will own this thing when I pick it up. As for GMAC Insurance, I work for the division that sells dealers the products they sell. Nothing to do with car/life insurance or loans. ---
