Sunday: Going to Cannon today? Drive the right car

[ckofer]

I remember attending a little party shortly after college (80's) where everybody work Birkenstocks and drove VWs. They were making fun of the yuppies with BMWs. I found it amusing.

Farfernugen! (I'm sure that must be spelled wrong)

Kinda like driving a Buick and making fun of Caddy owners.

How many degrees of separation?

Actually its more like driving a Chevy and making fun of Lincoln owners

I'll go along with that.

Hopefully not too off-topic: isn't it great how Cadilac uses a Led Zep tune in tv ads? When the band first came out, you would not have associated the two...

Re: Audi?

I just chose to spend my loot on something thats well made and doesnt drink gas....

Sheesh, pepperdawg, you can get that with a Honda Civic for a lot less money than your yuppiemobile. A civic may not be as cool as an Audi, but it will spend a lot less time in the shop.

Re: Audi?

I guess it depends on how you draw the lines...

Remember, not everyone buys those cars new. There's healthy demand by people (like me and friends) who enjoy a nice car, but cannot afford it new. Wait a few years for it to depreciate substantially. Can be done, even factoring in repair costs...

Are you trying to tell us that this discussion is heading down a slippery slope? :roll:

Interesting deal I agree that those folks aren't the ones who need the deal, but can you say the same for "Jeep Owner Appreciation Days?" :blink:

Unfortunately, New England Jeep dealerships stopped funding appreciation days at the end of the 03-04 season.
I only got one season (2 days) of free skiing after I bought my wrangler.

But, one of those days was at Burke, an introduction to a mountain i've become quite fond of..
