It did, but after suffering in it for 4 years, it is time to let it go.

He said they were lined up at 8 pm for miles and that continued all night! Anyway, someone thought he was Bob Segar and let him and his group go to the head of the line and he got into all the VIP areas! LOL! (I said, "what!!!??? Bob Segar is pretty old and you are not!" But, he said the young kids don't know that?) Whatever works, I guess! He said that a screwdriver in a rocks glass was $17.50! Geesh! I don't know how these guys can even buy girls drinks at that rate!!!!

He did say it was kind of cool to see Pure, but it didn't live up to all the hype and it was so crowded you could barely move! BTW, some of the guys that came in after them tipped the door guy $400!! I am sure that is nothing, but to me....what I could do with some of the money thrown around there!
17.50 for a screwdriver? Someone is sure getting screwed.

Someone out there wants that crappy old Ford Escort. Post it on Craigslist for a low price and someone will buy it immediately.
We sold our old 1984 Dodge van conversion for $400 that way. The first person that showed up bought it. Luckily it was a mechanic, so it probably runs great now. We had tons of people calling for it long after it was gone.
Carmax only wanted to give us $150 for it.

I plan on asking $500 for it since it literally runs and drives like new. I am only getting rid of it because of not having AC. Believe it or not, it has been the most reliable car I have ever had.

Check the scrapyards. Steel is way up granted it is a light car. Last I checked steel was around 350 a ton. Pinky, you would have gotten more by scrapping the van if it was recent

That is also what you paid for it as well if I'm not mistaken, you've had that car 5 years

I recently had a transmission flush and new front brake pads on my car. My odometer reads 94k and shifts smooth as butter. Motor has 33k

I need a new window regulator and a new driver side mirror though The mirror can wait, the window regulator cannot. Once the window regulator is fixed, I plan on getting a nice dark tint, I dont wanna go through baking hot car with no tints, round 2 this summer.
