Today is a big day for this new plant I am at, the CEO Rick wagnor is coming here today to announce our next product the chevy cruze.  it will be all over CNN and many other networks.  I will be there watching so if they show the crowd I might be in the picture.  Wearing a blue long sleeved dress shirt.

Also I'm not sure if everyone saw it, Gm is offering employee pricing for everyone, the only catch is that is the only incentive now.  So as for brian getting his truck with GM employee pricing and he got all the incentives with it!!  Glad you got it, and by the way how is it running!


Very nice indeed and thank you again for all the help. Next up is getting the bed coated with Rhino-liner like my last three trucks. [thumbsup] But damn they are obnoxiously big. Absolutely no freaking reason for a 1/2 ton, 2wd pick up to be that damn tall!! Stupid. Dodge started this shit, then Ford, now Toyota and GM! This belongs on the "that's BS" thread! I'm the average American guy height wise and you know something's wrong when a guy my height can't reach over the side of a pick up bed and grab something on the floor. I'm gonna have to keep a milk crate in the bed to stand on! Getting up into the bed gives me a nose bleed and doesn't do my blown out knee any good either. No kidding, it is such an awesome vehicle, so much better than my '02, but someone really ought to tell the engineers/designers that enough is enough. Please lower them a foot. Besides that it's killer!!!

Some scientists claim that hydrogen, because it is so plentiful, is the basic building block of the universe. I dispute that. I say there is more stupidity than hydrogen, and that is the basic building block of the universe.

So I had a dream last night that Jeff Nash was trying to get me to trade in my monster for a black 1098s. I love my monster. I love the 1098s blk. Why the F does my subconscious toy with me like this? I will have both one day... no trade in.  mark my words.

That wasn't a dream. I was there, remember? I was the one telling you that one bike wasn't enough and how good that black 1098S would look next to the S2R1K. Subconscious? It was real. Don't tell me you don't remember this? Kinda hurts my feelings. :P

Hmmm, I think the "you need more than one bike" voice is in all of our heads....  [laugh]

fastwin

Yeah, it's the one voice in my head I apparently have listended to. The others just seem to be snooring. [coffee]

You can't beat 3% financing. Did apparition Jeff mention that? I know he did.

Or you could wait and see what goodness 2009 might bring.....

haha... well don't take this the wrong way, but you're not the only "enabler" on this board. is there anyone here who does NOT think I should get a black 1098s?
