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?
It will take a while before I would trust one.

-If you were out with family or friends and got dared to get on a mechanical bull riding machine would you?
Not a chance.

-Have you ever called into a radio talk show?
A couple times. Was not anything special.

When it comes to buying a car or some other expensive item...
-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 almost did not buy my Jeep. The first salesman waiting on me showed me a couple vehicles but nothing I wanted. I actually was just killing time by browsing cars. I was heading out the door when a different salesman suggested I test drive a Grand Cherokee. I still have that Grand Cherokee more than 12 years later.

-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 use to buy new cars from the same dealer for several years. Most of the time I would have to get up and walk away a couple times before the price was what I would pay. On the last new pick up I bought I made what I thought was a lowball offer. They accepted my offer. I have always wondered how low they would have gone.

-Have you ever gone to a bookstore and spent the afternoon reading a book that you are not going to buy?
I have done it. The bookstore was actually ok with it. They had comfy chairs located throughout the store.

-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?
I wait a while. Golden Corral just opened up here a couple weeks ago. I saw over a 100 people standing in line today waiting for their turn to get inside.


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.

Unlike several thousand airline flights, Sunday's QOTD was not cancelled due to weather.
