We'll picked up a new Honda Accord EX-L I4 auto transmission, this afternoon. This will be the new daily driver. Very nice car. I realized that the car we have has more bells and whistles than the Acura Legend we had in 1988. Cars have come a long way.
The deal was to good to pass up. We were going to wait until my son got a job. He just graduated from his MBA program and doesn't have a job yet. But he will do fine. I never got grades as good as he has. Summa Cum Laude.

Dealer Sales Manager was sort of a butt head in negotiations. Called with a good price. And when trying to get TTL specifics. He raised the price. After a couple of days I complained to the holding company of the auto group. I got a e-mail from the auto group President apologizing and offer the car at a ridiculous low price. They came off $4200.00 from list with TTL vs. what I paid.

So now the wear and tear of daily driving will not beat down the 300TD. And I can take my time working on it instead of having to have it running.

The signature has changed
