Speaking of soft car market. Went to get my cars oil changed at the local
L/M dealer and didn't see a single car buying customer the whole time I was
there.

I am on my way to the dealer to get a timing belt for my old Prelude.
That was $1000 a couple years ago(I passed). They are going to do it
for $560 today with a coupon. The parts are almost $200 and it is a
miserable job on a Prelude (there is no wheel well cover to remove,
the strut support is right there). Those boys are hungry.

I feel for them.. I thought I was gonna' have to do a waterpump on my
wifes Eclipse, even a couple guys who do work on the side wanted nothing
to do with it.. and one of them has a full setup in his garage with
lift, parts washers, presses, etc... (not that you need a press for the
job). Turned out it wasn't the pump, thank God...

That's because YOU own it, and they KNEW you would stiff them on the
bill....just like that $25,000 Hospital Bill, right Coward?
