bailout plan -- new idea

[Britt Crowell]

Well here in the southeast, I see lots of chargers, some under cover police 
and others rolling on 20's.
Running up on one from behind in my A8 with the super duper summer option 
that renders all in cab radar dectors useless, and my cell phone sucks.
Then again with 170K miles I guess I should just be lucky I'm not running 
down the road on fire from my leaky fuel line and valve cover gaskets and 
that other leak I have no idea where its coming from, that make me 
embarrassed to park in anyone's driveway.
Then again, the Boss (God She's Sexy!) wants to get rid of her POS '01 
GrandPrix GT 2dr for a '01 A8L, and I can't come up with a good reason why 
not, even if it needs a TB job.
Then there is my old '88 5ktq that's just rusting under the pecan tree 
because the injector seals were leaking so bad it wouldn't run, and I ripped 
it all apart and don't have time to work on it now.
Which brings me to my '93 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 215K miles, 5.2L (like the 
new V10 R8) that SOB just wont die! I smashed it in to a F350 years ago and 
even the glass didn't break! Friends bet on what state it would break down 
in from the drive from CO to AL, I just ended up with 6 cases of beer to 
drink (bummer eh). Yea the paint is pealing, but it mows down saplings on 
our 15 acres like a bush hog!
The big three had their day, its over, but they have produced some good cars 
too. They are going to have to change to survive. Keep the good stuff, get 
rid of the crap, create new stuff that people want to buy and support the 
old crap!
Do I want to pay for it.....not really, but I don't want to have to splice 
all the wires in my drivers side door on my '88 5ktq either.
Or try to figure out why my cruise control isn't working on my A8.
Or replace all the control arms on it before driving to WV for Christmas.
Or fix the oil leaks.
Or rebuild the tranny that slips a little in 2nd.
Bitch Moan Wine
I'm thinking I'm just going to stay in school and get my MBA and ride all 
this crap out and see what happens.

PS The Boss's POS still runs great, might be using a little oil, seats are 
shit and its noisy, but it runs!
