Hi Bob,
Yes, You're correct, what do they know? I would however be most concerned 
with the Saturn listing in your signature.
Very much a case of what doesn't belong in that list of mostly acceptable 
examples of Automobiles.

Yes, we know the follow up in such cases. It's probably "It's the best new 
Car I ever bought" "Love It!" "Most Dependable"
Trust me , drop it from your signature, and You'll be looked upon as a Car 
Guy again!
Cheers,
Wayne

75 TR6 (Daily Driver again soon)
