What would cars cost if they left off the silly frills?
I think an automatic tranny is truly useful but power steering, brakes,
and windows are a joke. Same with tinted glass and fancy paint jobs and a million other doodads like the warning light for the windshield washer fluid and turn signals emebedded in the side mirrors. No question to me but that it's a conspiracy. They add all these gadgets and make a 30% profit on each one. And more money when the damn things go bad . Most americans are not loonybirds who fall in love with cars. We jsut want a vehicle that gets us from A to B and there is no reason why a perfectly functional brand new car should cost over $5,000. |

Most Americans aren't lazy, deluded welfare retards like you are. We go
to work, we pay for a car that has the features we want and need, providing jobs to the people who *build* the cars, and when they turn into worn out pieces of ****, sell them to losers like youself. Have a good weekend, moron! |

"william lynch" > wrote in message ... > Go buy a motorcycle. I have not checked the price of the low power end of motorcycles lately, but it seems that motorcycle start at about $10K if they have enough power for freeway commuting. Most people want to only buy high powered motorcycles. The sticker price on my BMW motorcycle was about $16.5K. It dropped to $15K with a discount for paying cash and another deduction for working for the company I work at. Never figured out the deduction for working at certain companies. |

Most people want to only buy high powered motorcycles. My friend has a Buell Blast motorcycle that cost around $3000. He rides it on I-540 all the time, it will cruise at high speeds with no problem. -- "Shake says that books are from the devil, and that TV is twice as fast" - Meatwad "The Constitution was written on reefer by dudes with wooden teeth" - OG Loc |
