I just bought a new car
A 2008 Dodge Caliber in rosy red. It was a good time to buy, $2000 in rebates, a $500 VIP corporate discount, and my trade in gave me a great price.

I pick it up Monday. :woohoo:

1. Cool!
I'm not familiar with that model. I'm heading to campus to pick up Lelapin and will look it up when I get back.

Congratulations!!

:hug:

4. Actually, yes-Hitler tried to push the Dodge Caliber as the car of the people
but Rommel won out and they went with Volkswagen instead...

6. Oh, I see

Those Nazis were so ahead of their time; imagine pushing a car that wouldn't be produced for another seventy years.

5. Yeah!! Congratulations!!
:woohoo:

You do know that statistically RED cars get more tickets

and stops by the cops, don't you? ;) It's true!

Drive defensively and enjoy your new wheels! :toast:

7. Actually my last red car was invisible
It was rear ended twice on successive Thursdays so I traded it in for a white one that people could see.

10. My white car was rear-ended twice in 5 months so I don't think it is the color
it is the stupid people behind the wheel of the other car.

I swear I thought there was a bulls-eye on the back of my car.
