Thanks, fw. It's too bad that you have to spend so much time doing NOTHING but explaining things to me. I must say though, you're a great friend to have around.

Unfortunately, this is also why K often has so much extra reading to catch up on. :ohdear:

I'm sure it's just because you were working and didn't see it. I didn't get it until I saw it on the news. NOTHING but timing.

Gave the car business a rest today, let's see what B.S. sales they come up with for the holiday.

They have been running a commercial before youtube's lately that I can skip 5 seconds into it. Someone around here is leasing a Toyota carola for $84 a month. I don't know how much down. Does that interest you? That's nothing and you don't need to worry about mileage around here.

As my mother, MomWed use to say to me, "You know, TomWed, it's always nothing."

I just noticed, I only need 104 more comments before I go into 5 digits. Let's all hope I get a life by then.

What title do you get when you reach 10000 posts? Do you become NOTHING?

Who needs one? It's very overrated. NOTHING is better. :icon_wink:

I just got this. NOTHING but a little slow...

not slow--nothing like that-

I was watching, hearing Danny Boy and the camera moved to Mrs. McCain for a second or two. All of a sudden she drops her head to her son's shoulders and starts to weep. The camera quickly cut away out of respect. For many families including my own, Danny Boy is about every lost one. So I typed.

That would definitely be NOTHING but a heart wrenching moment. Thanks for sharing for those of us who didn't see it. I would youtube or google it but not sure I could bear to watch it.

Even the bits I saw on the news were NOTHING but heart wrenching. He had a wonderful family and was an honorable man.

I'm not going on a NOTHING strike but thought I would limit my posts, especially the length of them, until the Kommander gets home. I think I'm wearing him out and he can't keep up after such long days. But wait 'til he gets home......then he'll have to put up with me again - lol.

Don’t worry. I read at least the first sentence. After that it blurs into NOTHING. lol

I think I would need NOTHING below the Camry. I saw an ad today for a Ford Escape with 6 years 0%. That is the kind of thing that interests me. Even though I've been driving a Ford for a long time I have to really think hard about buying one, I have been leasing the last 4 cars.

The best thing that could happen would be a nice little Sonata or Accord or Fit. I think the reason its a mission in Florida is many dealers try to add on about $900 as a fee. That doesn't work for me. Have they lost their minds man?

So here is my offer, I want the dealer to put up the entire amount of the car up for me or else I'll have to call Vito & Rocco if they are out of Coleman. :boom:

I have NOTHING more than this for you - :p :blahblahblah:

That's all the girl crap I can find to throw at you at this moment. Oh, here's this too - :girlneener:

Aside from all that, hope you had a good day and glad you're back safe with us NOTHINGS.

I was thinking NOTHING but the same. We have only bought Toyotas for the past 35 years and now I'm afraid to get anything else because they last with no problems beyond normal maintenance. We have saved a LOT of money on cars because of this. We have an older Highlander and it is probably our favorite car for the comfortable ride and versatility. The Honda Fit is a very roomy car for such a small vehicle. It also offers a great ride for a small car. We test drove one while in Florida last time. If I thought I could get away with it for long rides that would possibly be the car we would purchase for TV. I'm looking at Subarus too. Although again, I hate to veer away from Toyotas.

As far as the Ford Escape - here's all I know. My cousin bought a Honda CRV and then generously decided to give it to her niece who needed a vehicle at the time. She then went and bought a Ford Escape for herself. I bet she barely had the Ford for more than 2 years and went back and traded it in for another Honda CRV. She said there was no comparison. If you're leaning in that direction you might want to check that out. Unless Toyota has gotten better with their RAV-4, I haven't been happy with that over the years. Just not as good a ride as some of the other smaller SUVs on the market.

Sorry, K, I know too many words, but we're talking cars here. Important business......
