True.  He was very prissy.  I found, buried under the passenger seat, 
4-5 owners later, a reciept for a detailing job...roughly $150-ish. 
Matched up with what the 4th owner said, which was that the first 
owner had the car detailed regularly.  He was smart, though...the 
bill was sent to the insurance company he owned :)

Why exactly do you(Canadian) associate my country(US) with guns?  It

morons, and that they're all a bunch of do-gooders.

We all have our associations...
