car p.s.

We got mucho dinero for the car: 6000 big ones! Did we do OK? Well, let’s see:
- a trade-in would have got us $5000 at the most (subject to an inspection, and we all know what subject-to-anything means when a car salesman says it)
- another car salesman (who shall remain nameless, unless you are shopping for a Sunfire in Oakville, Ontario – in that case, we should talk) told us to expect $2000-2500
- the guy at the impound lot told us to fight for no less than $7000 (we’re not really the fighting kind)
- and we were honestly expecting about $4500, but would have walked away (smiling) with anything over $4000.
So, we think we did OK.
