That is key "contentment". It is hard to achieve as greed (credit) and other challenges/temptations usually lure most folks into making bad decisions. Good for Carl to have good mentor-ship (parenting??) or a lot of common sense early on in the game of LIFE!

Unless it was a wreck, the price would be at least 25 grand more. Not that it matter, but if part of the story, didn't sounds right, i kinda doubt the rest... :roll:

I vote for a "GMan Chronicles" section on CAD I appreciate it, Bandit. Unfortunately, most of my runs are not all that interesting.

I almost asked for the guy's number who was selling it. I would consider buying it myself for that price. Apparently, there are some health issues with the guy who wants to sell it. If someone gets desperate they are willing to deal. The guy seemed sincere. I think he was being truthful.

thats the way to do it just be smart with your money, i've known many young o/o's who end up going bankrupt because they start living large and don't think about saving, i very rarely use my credit card for anything, and i always try to put money away for if i ever have to do major repairs to my truck
