I like how your example of a middle aged man who looks like he’s given up on life is H. John Benjamin, the voice of Sterling Archer and Bob of Bob’s Burgers. He’d be a great hired driver; every drive would be a hoot.

only one goddamn issue here... why aren’t the pictures all WALLPAPER QUALITY? I DEMAND LINKS TO MAXIMUM MEGAPIXEL!

As others noted: you are right on. Bought my 2011 X5 last year from a place in Texas.

Yes exactly what you described...find a nearby shop and ask the dealer to take it there. If they won’t, don’t buy a car from them. A good dealer will accommodate this request.

The inspection ran about $250

...and here comes skanky!

WHAT ARE THESE PEOPLE RUNNING FROM? THEY’RE NOT!

RIGHT YOU ARE, KEN.

Ha! Preston Hollow is real money. Your first guess is correct. Southlake is just a foreigner (i.e., Californians and Yankees) wannabe circle jerk.
