Sarah's husband is a pilot and they have a very nice airplane. They can shoot all the wolves they want without my help.

I always insist whatever dealership I get a car from (if I get a car from a dealership, rarely now) take off ALL their logos, advertising, etc. I'm not paid to advertise for them.

Yup. Me, too.
Same with the license plate frames.

Yeah I remove all that crap off. Same idea. You’re not paying for me to advertise for you

Unless they're willing to knock off another couple thousand on the car, I tend to agree.

Guys who buy cars to impress women are trying to make up for shortcomings elsewhere.

Ah. The internet.

Where nobody claims they do anything to get attention from the opposite sex. All 100% authentic what you see is what you get authenticity and patting themselves on the back.

Sure....

Sorry this is OT but my dad used to fly me and a couple of friends to Catalina for breakfast on Saturday mornings after my friends would sleep over. Your post brought up a very sweet memory.

Did you know that if you go to the service department and ask them for a license plate holder or decal with the dealership's name on it they will usually give it to you free. It's free advertising for them. And it looks a whole lot better than those low-budget dealership plate holders/decals

Well, as I asked earlier; when/where would a woman ever even see the car you are driving upon introducing? Not in a club, bar, library, etc. I seriously doubt anyone is meeting a woman while stuck in traffic or parking in a parking lot.

Considering I am married, my cars sit most of the time in the garage, and when I am out to clubs, bars, etc, I am either walking to them or parking and walking in, I seriously doubt my (or anyone similar) has a car with reasons of trying to impress a woman.
