Brutal. Although on the other hand some people are :censor: lunatics and demand unreasonable things. Two sides to every story.

Can you stop the deer from eating my flowers in the cemetery.

I don't think they would like my answer.  :-X

There used to be a Kia Sorrento around Moncton that clearly had issues.  The owner put a huge sticker of a lemon on it along with his phone number, and then it said something along the lines of "talk to me before you buy one".

Saw my first Porsche Panemera wagon in the flesh. I thought it looked terrific! Hopefully these models will depreciate like previous Panemera models have. Potential to pick one up for a song in about 10 years.

Didn't remember my regular route going past the Edmonton shipyards

Couldn't get a better picture, but it looks like the Ram pulling the trailer has a bent frame, or something is messed up with the box.

Dropping my car off at the indy this morning and there was a VW Corrado VR6 there. Was hoping to talk to the owner but they were gone before I came back out. These still look great IMO.

Saw a Bentley Bentayga today. Black naturally. Bland. A miniscule spoiler/wing over the rear hatch. (I will give them the benefit of the doubt, that it was to keep the rear hatch glass clean, and not simply decorative.) What a waste of a gazillion dollars.  :o
