Hi everyone. After one or two minutes of deep thought I present to you...
Sunday's QOTD.
-It is only a matter of time before we start seeing driverless cars on the road. If you were to call a taxi and a driverless car showed up would you get in?............Nope
-If you were out with family or friends and got dared to get on a mechcanical bull riding machine would you?............Yep
-Have you ever called into a radio talk show?............I have called in but only to answer trivia questions.
When it comes to buying a car or some other expensive item...
-I research it and know what I want......................That’s how I usually do it.
-I Ask friends what they would buy.
-I let the salesman tell me what I want.
-I just buy the first thing that catches my eye...............This is how I got a Shelby Mustang.
-Many car dealerships have what they call "no haggle" pricing. Do you prefer not haggling or do you like to see how much you can get the price down to?...............I’ll haggle. It’s fun!
-Have you ever gone to a bookstore and spent the afternoon reading a book that you are not going to buy?........No
-When a new restaurant opens that you might want to check out do you go during the grands opening or do you wait a few months until it is not as crowded?...............I’ll wait until all the hubbub settles down.
Today Is Probably Not................Good ones Mutt!!!
-Take a yucky veggie to the movies.
-Replace the air in your car tires.
-Get your airline seat upgraded to first class for free.
Unlike several thousand airline flights, Sunday's QOTD was not cancelled due to weather.

-When a new restaurant opens that you might want to check out do you go during the grands opening or do you wait a few months until it is not as crowded? Wait. I found out the hard way that grand openings are not always the best qualitywise.

-It is only a matter of time before we start seeing driverless cars on the road. If you were to call a taxi and a driverless car showed up would you get in? Caddy just introduced a semi - driverless vehicle.. so now you can drink your latte - text - and be so cool in your Blingmobile and have no responsibilities

Sunday's QOTD.
-It is only a matter of time before we start seeing driverless cars on the road. If you were to call a taxi and a driverless car showed up would you get in? If I knew in advance it would be a driverless car, I might.
-If you were out with family or friends and got dared to get on a mechanical bull riding machine would you? No. I am not THAT stupid.
-Have you ever called into a radio talk show? No.
When it comes to buying a car or some other expensive item...
-I research it and know what I want. This one. But I might also discuss it with friends/people i know who would have good input.
-I Ask friends what they would buy.
-I let the salesman tell me what I want.
-I just buy the first thing that catches my eye.
-Many car dealerships have what they call "no haggle" pricing. Do you prefer not haggling or do you like to see how much you can get the price down to? I have never really done this. I have never bought a new car, but I have bought two used cars from dealerships. All other used cards came from friends or family or word of mouth.
-Have you ever gone to a bookstore and spent the afternoon reading a book that you are not going to buy? No, I would feel guilty.
-When a new restaurant opens that you might want to check out do you go during the grands opening or do you wait a few months until it is not as crowded? Wait.

-It is only a matter of time before we start seeing driverless cars on the road. If you were to call a taxi and a driverless car showed up would you get in? Not today. Maybe several years from now.
-If you were out with family or friends and got dared to get on a mechcanical bull riding machine would you? I've never seen one in person, but I think I could be convinced to give it a try, as long as it was set on the slowest/easiest setting of motion.
-Have you ever called into a radio talk show? Nope. One time I sent in a funny newspaper clipping that was read on a morning radio show, and they read my name as the one who submitted it.
When it comes to buying a car or some other expensive item... -I research it and know what I want. I do tons of research and am probably 99% sure what I'll buy before I even see it in person. -I Ask friends what they would buy. -I let the salesman tell me what I want. -I just buy the first thing that catches my eye.
-Many car dealerships have what they call "no haggle" pricing. Do you prefer not haggling or do you like to see how much you can get the price down to? I hate haggling but do it out of necessity.
-Have you ever gone to a bookstore and spent the afternoon reading a book that you are not going to buy? Nope. I'd feel guilty doing that. I only read the synopsis and other comments on the jacket.
-When a new restaurant opens that you might want to check out do you go during the grands opening or do you wait a few months until it is not as crowded? Usually, I'll wait till things calm down a bit and till after they've worked out the kinks in a new place.
Today Is Probably Not... -Take a yucky veggie to the movies. -Replace the air in your car tires. -Get your airline seat upgraded to first class for free. Sure wish I could do this! In a couple of months I'll be on an 8+ hour flight and sure would love to have better than an economy-level seat.
Unlike several thousand airline flights, Sunday's QOTD was not cancelled due to weather. That's mighty good news, Mutt! Thanks for the Q's. Happy Sunday, everybody. .

-Many car dealerships have what they call "no haggle" pricing. Do you prefer not haggling or do you like to see how much you can get the price down to? I prefer not haggling. I also try to get pre-approved financing first which helps in the negotiations.

-When a new restaurant opens that you might want to check out do you go during the grand opening or do you wait a few months until it is not as crowded? Most of the time I wait until the novelty has worn off.

-If you were out with family or friends and got dared to get on a mechcanical bull riding machine would you? === Not any more -- probably throw my back out!

-If you were out with family or friends and got dared to get on a mechcanical bull riding machine would you? I have been out with friends and have been dared to ride a mechanical bull but I've never taken the dare.

-I research it and know what I want.
-I Ask friends what they would buy.
-I let the salesman tell me what I want.
-I just buy the first thing that catches my eye. I don't plan to buy anymore expensive cars or trucks but I used to know what I wanted before I went shopping. Then I would go to my bank or credit union, get approved for what the vehicle normally should sell for, then go to the lots. When the salesman tried to sell me a vehicle for a lot more than the market value, I would tell them how much I could spend. If they laughed, I would thank them for their time then walk away. Auto salesmen never liked me as a customer anyway since I've always shopped total price rather than monthly payments.
-Many car dealerships have what they call "no haggle" pricing. Do you prefer not haggling or do you like to see how much you can get the price down to? I certainly don't mind haggling but CarMax seems to have some exceptionally clean vehicles although their vehicles are normally set-priced at the top end of the Kelley or NADA scales. Where you can haggle with "no haggle" prices is on loan interest.
-Have you ever gone to a bookstore and spent the afternoon reading a book that you are not going to buy? Although I have spent several hours in a single bookstore, it was never because I was reading something I had no intention of buying.
-When a new restaurant opens that you might want to check out do you go during the grands opening or do you wait a few months until it is not as crowded? Wait a few years. If there is still a crowd, I wait some more.
Thanks Mutt. Fun questions.
