We had a miniature dachshund for 16 years before she died of congestive heart failure. I still miss her and want another one, but my wife says no. So, to all who have a loving pet, I urge you to spend time with them when you can.

We have over a hundred Canada geese that have decided to make our pond (5 acres) their home. They sure do leave a lot of "calling cards" around the edge where I have to mow and weed eat. I hate them, but it's illegal to shoot them!

I'm not defending the salesman, but I will give you a bit of information as to why he might not have known everything about your truck. When I retired, my best friend (who owned a Ford dealership before retiring himself) talked me into coming to work and selling. I would say that I took about...

. . .And I think you're right.

Yes, you're buying a vehicle that's now one model year old and therefore worth less than a 2020. I also thought that car sales would be down, but the salesman I bought mine from said business is booming since the deals right now are great.

The main reason that we've been getting so much from other countries, China in particular, is that companies ask for bids on building/making a particular product--It can be electronics, appliances, automotive parts or socks and underwear. Whoever bids the lowest wins the contract. That's why...

You're absolutely correct that all of us will be helping pay the tab; the younger ones will bear most of the burden. Runaway inflation is probably just over the horizon. If I'm remembering correctly, the last time the budget was balanced was under Bill Clinton.

Thank you, sir.

I think that while all of us will be happy to receive the stimulus payments, I can't help but feel sorry for folks in the future, especially the younger generations, who will be paying out more in taxes. The stimulus won't be a "freebie." A day of reckoning will come.

Prayers and best wishes for your mom.

A couple of them do have some minor issues like asthma. One of the guys is probably the most fit person I know.

I've owned several Fords with the factory-sprayed liner. Never had a problem with any of them.

I don't know of anyone on the forum, but eight friends or acquaintances have contracted the illness and one of them, unfortunately, died.

Am I remembering correctly that the Book of Revelation refers to a cashless society?

For me, it's peace of mind--plain and simple. I don't like debt.

I bought an extended warranty for the first time. The 7-year 100,000 mile with a $100 deductible plus LED light coverage ran $1235. It's like all other insurance: a waste of money if you never need it, but worth having if you do. My Ranger replaces a GM vehicle that started giving problems...

I've done the same thing. Financed and then paid off.

I was saying that with 84 payments, the balance owed on the principal will go down at a much slower pace than the truck will depreciate.

I used to get a manual transmission in everything I owned. Most of that ended when I got married. After trying to teach my wife how to drive a manual Porsche 911, I decided I couldn't afford any more "straight shifts."

I took my Corvette to 153 mph before I let off the gas. I prefer to do my flying in an airplane!
