Tipping post tax is just easier math. What’s even easier? The way I do it. Let’s say the total is $82.79. I just take the first number, 8, double it 16, and round it up to the nearest multiple of 5. So $20 tip.

Makes it harder to negotiate down? Maybe. But building value? Absolutely not. You set your price based on your own inspection and expectations. Just because an independent inspection may confirm your findings doesn't make it any more valuable. 

My 89 had the fantastic red and black dash. My 93 was solid red. My 94 gt I had was the lovely saddle option. My 94 cobra was a respectable solid black.

My 89 had the 2-tone dash. My 93 did not. Maybe when they started adding the airbag they changed to solid color? I have no idea. 

This is one of those articles that makes me cry a little less about living in flyover country.

Most people have a hard enough time driving just a car. I can just imagine how bad it would be attaching a trailer behind most idiots.

In heaven there is no beer... 

This video brought tears to my eyes and I haven’t even watched it yet.  What poor soul still records video in portrait mode?

Not the damn pedorists!

But it’s what pedos and terrorists use so that must mean you are both if you use it!

I never understood why you would ever hand over the keys to your trade, let alone say you are trading, without first having a written agreement on purchase price. I've had more than one dealer not want to give me a price without first knowing how I was paying and if I was trading. They didn't get my business. Dealers

I tip 25% give or take a few cents of the post tax amount because it’s easy to calculate in my head. More for outstanding service. But there is something to be said about choosing your career and education level.

I just want a nice professional looking smart watch with a metal band and minimal bezel and buttons. I don’t want something that looks like a toy or is mostly rubber. Is that too much to ask? 

This is why I never buy used cars anymore. Carfax and Autocheck don’t show shit for months after occurrence.  I got burned by this once. Never again. 

In his defense, there really isn't much to do in Iowa City besides get drunk. 

Why no comparison to the Regal GS? The GS may not be as fast but you get a better all around car for less. Plus it's all wheel drive. 

Many of the farmers have plenty of the real cash crop hidden along the fence rows to make up for it. At least that’s the way it was back when I lived there and grew up farming.

Mine had already been declawed at all 4 corners when I adopted her so she isn’t scratchy. It’d probably be hard for her to scratch anything if she had claws because the fur tufts between the toes are so big. It’s like she has giant furry stumps. I imagine though it’s like most cats that still have their claws. If you

She never shuts up.  And loves to cuddle to the point that she has to sleep next to my side under the covers every night.  But only after she fumbles around climbing on top of me and slides all over the duvet because he paws a giant furballs with big fur tufts between every toe.

I've been a long time season ticket holder and have met Moore on a few occasions. He's a severely religious man and that has clouded his judgement a few times. I also think him and Ned have served their purposes here and it's time to move on from them. I don't want to wait another 30 years.
