I've been pricing new Honda Ridgelines all day today via internet. As soon as this is available, I'm going to get rid of my ol Dodge!

sucking up to the teet huh?  You should at least have the principle the dealers and bankers are showing by trying to give back the money.  Once you realize the strings attached it isn't worth it.  So now I and the rest of the American people have to foot your rebate.  Thanks bubb.  Nothing I like better than the gov't giving my money away and sticking me with payment on the interest so you can buy a new car. He's going to pull and squeeze that teet til he kills the cow.  I guess that kinda makes you an Obamatron sort of.  Once you take the milk it's like crack I hear.  I wonder what other tax payer giveaway you might qualify for.  Can I buy you a new house?  Or, maybe some new clothes?  You'll probably need a vacation to recover from all that shopping.  I'll break my piggy bank and see what I can do.

Doomster,

When I bought my ol Dodge, everyone said the same thing! I have put Big Red through hell! It has a cracked windshield, cracked dash board, and the paint is peeling. Still runs good though. The reason I have held on to it is because I knew I couldn't get anything for it on trade in. Now, thanks to Obama and Fly, I'll have me a new ride soon! Evil or Very Mad

As for the Ridgeline, my rock climbing days are over. I just need something to pull my boat and lawn mower. My wife and I like to take trips to the mountains a few times a year and want something that is a little more comfy on long trips. I like the hidden storage space and the price. they aren't selling that well so I have much more bargaining power than with Ford and Chevy. Besides, all my friends have Chevys and Fords, so I gotta get something different so they will talk junk and I can laugh and ask them when is the last time you went rock climbing? Razz
