Default Is that a stock driver side mirror?

Is that a stock driverside mirror or has this thing been put back together?

Default Yeah. Good times for salesperson too.

We used to have a good time with people who were eager to re-invent themselves.

Default Kinda like me. $100k base IT rep to reinvt mortgage refi guy. Not exciting but...

very lucrative, less hours, no commute, much bigger pre-tax gross since the Y2K landslide in IT spending that began (for me) in 2nd half '99. Two start-ups later, et.al!!!!

Default All the car salespeople with a brain and an option got out and are now

selling mortgages. Classic cycle. Those who don't do mortgages, end up at BMW, Porche dealers if they can cut the grade.

Default I think some have unrealistic expectations.........

Check out the Euro mags and you will see that a 3 year old A6 4.2 has a residual value of 44%. A 2000 car could now be a least 3 1/2 years old. This is the real world, not 60% after 3 years on a car out of warranty when every time it goes to see the mechanic you are probably looking at $500 or a $1000.
