To Ken: Alright, lets do it. I just ordered it yesterday, so who knows how long before it arrives and gets installed though. BTW, do you want my Flowmaster Muffler by chance? To Derek: My dad was actually considering doing that with an SVT that was for sale in ABQ a few months ago, but that fell through and he bought a '98 Sebring a month later  . Since then he has grown quite attached (don't know why?) so, unfortunetly, it looks like that is not going to happen.

Derek, do you realize what you're saying? Think about it this way. 1) The person that buys your car isn't going to love it, take care of it, wax it, and baby it as much as you do. 2) It's paid for, which means that you can afford it because you are in school from 8-5 Mon through Fri. 3) It's an increadible car that you put a lot of work into, and keeps pulling stronger all the way to red-line (yes, I still dream about that ride you gave me  ). 4) If you break down now, and stop buying sporty cars, you will never buy one again, because you will fall victim to the "I don't need it" syndrome that plagues all young-getting-older-and-more-responsible men in this country. Dammit Derek, don't do this to yourself! You NEED a sporty car. You NEED a car that's already paid for. You NEED to have a car that pulls all the way to red-line. Your car NEEDS to have someone like you that will baby it that way you do, even if you don't think it's enough. You NEED to keep your youth. You NEED that car. Don't sell it. 5) Your car is one of the coolest things about you, and a great way to get girls. The bicycle is not.  Your brain is not.  Girls only want material things like money, clothes, money, SPORTY CARS, and credit cards to spend your money. You've already stated that you don't have money, so keep your car because that's the only thing that will attract women to you, unless you have credits cards, but those aren't fun for you.... SPORTY CARS are fun. 6) You are thinking in the opposite direction. Instead of selling the car to buy a slower one, you should be thinking about how to make your car more powerful (did I hear Turbo?) and faster. Or thinking about how to buy a newer, faster, more SPORTY car than the one you already have. Why buy a slow car? Girls like it fast (I can explain this too, if you'd like). Derek, I honestly believe that after you have read what I just typed that you will not sell your car unless under dire circumstances (i.e. knocked a girl up, found a faster car, had your balls cut off, etc.) I see absolutely no holes in my argument.

Alas, your girl argument is out Tait! Derek's got his gal, quick, think of another reason other than gettin the 'tang!
Ahem *clears throat*...

Hey Plato... when you get your paycheck from work, wouldn't you be a little upset if they only gave you ONE dollar? Yes, because one dollar isn't enough. The same is with girls. Also notice that I said "girlS", not "girl" in the singular sense. Geez, do I have to explain everything? 
So another reason why Derek shouldn't sell his car: Because SilverFrost is the coolest color, and you don't have to wash and wax it all the time for it too still look good. This is important because the car will look great even when Derek feels he is neglecting it (which he isn't).

ROB A BANK... or sell your car to some young kid and then steal it back... keep doing this to differant people then when you have enough money... install an AWD system and win awards at car shows AND THEN... take your girl friends offroading in your AWD Contour... thats what I would do if knew my age/resposibilty was OWNING me. Yes i said it... you are being owned as we speak... age owns your ass more than it owns mine... why? Because I didnt spray mod big repellant on my chest and scalp.. no I let the mod bug bite me and crawl up my nose and in my mouth and in my butt sometimes... yes sir.........wow.................im insane...........I shouldnt post this.
