And on top of the AMG stats, there is no car commercial cuter than Santa in a red one stopping to let the puppy do his business!

Yep, that's the other end all right when the MI sales tax on that vehicle would be approaching five-figures. Cars like that are not for people who do their own plumbing.

Very wise, doing your own plumbing.

Plumber gives the doctor a bill. $250. Doctor says "Two hundred fifty bucks for an hour's work? I'm a doctor and I don't make THAT much."
Plumber says "Neither did I when I was a doctor."

Porsche 959
Mercedes SS500K
Bugatti Atlantique
McLaren F1
