Hi Bonnie

I drive a 1995 Pontiac Sunrunner - its actually the same as a Suzuki Sidekick - only it's got the Pontiac label for some reason. It's great for running around my little community. Anyway, I got it used - only had 15,000 km on it and was a real good deal. Don't think I'd ever buy a new vehicle again. Soon as you drive it off the lot, it's depreciated by how much - 15-20%?
It's Japanese made - good quality, no repairs to date, real low mileage - very unpretentious. I like it. More than that, I don't have to put a lock on the steering wheel. Only problem is, my kids like it too <g>. Ahhhhh, when we get back to where we were, I'll buy 'em each one.

Hi Bonster

No use beating that drum. We're never going to get a straight answer as to why we were kicked off that thread.

Someone was having a bad hair day I guess.

That's the thing about moderated threads - the Soup Nazi persona comes into play. It's my way, or the highway baby.

For example:

I don't like how you think.
I don't approve of your language.
I don't share your opinion.
I don't care for your sense of humour.
... and, you obviously drink too much.

next step is the Zellos:

I don't like your sexual orientation
I don't like your colour
I don't approve of your choices

But, all the while, it's
"WE'LL SURROUND THEM WITH LOVE".
Give me a friggin break!

Thanks, but, no thanks.
