Default Dear Lord: Please STOP me from buying this car!! ARRRGGHHH



Oh man...I'm in love. Can I afford it? Yes, but I would have to sell my house. Could I live in it? Yes, I could because I would need to because my wife would kick me out of the house. Do I need it? HELL YES, I do!

I love this car. Seriously. Someone buy it quickly so I don't do something foolish and try to trade in Ebony on her!!!!

DH-here is your replacement car!!! Where are you at on yours????

If you buy it, you know what will happen. You'll lose your job and then you won't be able to buy your kids any Christmas presents. Then, your wife will get upset and want a divorce. Then, she'll get the house, you'll be paying child support and you won't be able to afford the car payments. Then, they will come take the car from you and you'll wind up an alcoholic on skid row.

Just trying to talk you out of it. Hey, it could happen!

Yeah, not so good fellas. I ran it by my wife today and she said that I she'll list all four of our cars on eBay for $.01 next time I go out of town and get rid of them all. Guess that means no?????

Just for fun, ask her what she would think about you getting the NM AND the '07 PB to go along with your '05 PB. Don't forget to run out of the room before she answers.

Hope she's not looking over your shoulder.

Tell her you were late because you drove by Sewell to look at the car!
