then again, many dealerships start off small....they keep a a bunch of ****ty rust-buckets in the lot to make it look like they have a lot to sell...
then they work on selling a handful of cars...
and
1. offer people bull**** prices for their old cars
2. repaint and wash/detail lemons to resell
3. try to squeeze as much money out of the customer as possible
you find it hard to believe people are able to do used-car start-up businesses?
does it shock you that people own entire stadiums, apartment buildings, shopping malls?
but yeah,
being a poor guy myself, I find things like that hard to fathom also.
It seems like it would take many generations just to steal a slice of the pie. Oh wait, that is usually what rich families do.

one thing i wonder is this....
air quickly passing over your car's engine cools it down...
blowing over hot soup tends to cool it down too...
fans cool people off in the summer time when it is hot...
So why is it that when a space-shuttle enters the atmosphere travelling back to earth, the air rushing past it makes the shuttle burn up? That is, if it enters the atmosphere too fast.
at what point does air flowing over something go from dissipating heat, to making it burn?

shopping for a car was the worst two months of my life.
they're all crooks!
the first thing one guy said to me was that he would give me $2000 off on an altima because he trusted me.
someone needs to go back to sales school.
