"Sorry that's not a Mach 1"

[Fauxnali]

Here's the thing, I'm a car guy, I love and appreciatte alot of different cars, it could be a Corvette, a Porsche, a ModelT. If it has wheels and someones put some love into it than i can appreciatte it. What the make of a car doesn't account for is some of the idiots that own them. And you will get idiots no matter what you drive. I try not to waste my time with obnoxios people that are going to be ignorant no matter what you tell them, and will spill my guts to someone that truly is a car guy and is interested in learning something and I usually return the favour by asking about their car. I find people who want to truly know about your car are pretty passionate and knowledgable about their own cars and you can usually learn something.

I have found though in recent years that it doesnt matter what i go to buy be it a car or a tv or a cell phone; i have done my research to a point before I go shopping that I am more educated on it than any sales person that I talk to. The internet has done this. That and alot of people don't seem to give a ***** at their jobs anymore.

I'd swear up and down that I was taking it to another shop.
