I guess they changed the law in SC for car sales. When I lived in SC from 92 to 97, I don't remember dealers being open on Sundays. Wanna give us a hint about the punch?

Marco....it’s steamy here....mid to high 90º with 70%-80% humidity...supposedly it feels like 105º+. We have had excessive heat warnings for about a week.
I took my dog to the local dog park yesterday. He usually likes running around for a ½ hour or so. Yesterday, he walked around for about 15 minutes and came back to my side and just sat. We came back home to the A/C.
I bought a new grill on line and it was delivered yesterday (www.fuegoliving.com). Was going to put it together, but decided to wait for a little cool down.
CBS Sunday Morning just had Cincinnati mentioned about the heat wave.....how animals at the Cincinnati Zoo are staying cool and the heat buckling some of our roads. They suggest to keep out of the heat (reciting the obvious)
Keeping us in suspense @sda ? Are you going to be the 1st one in the group to register a punch on your card with a Passport?
I saw a Passport in the wild on Friday. I had to do a double-take to make sure I saw the nameplate correctly. Otherwise, it is not all that memorable of a design.

@GG same temperatures here, I think tomorrow supposed to cool down here little bit of rain too, but I think by the middle of the week and to be in the 80s again. Yes best to wait and put your barbecue together when there’s cooler weather, thanks for sharing the site we got your new grill from. Yeah the dogs really don’t like it probably more so more than us, my dog stays inside 99% of the time was all for not even five minutes and comes in when the weather is like this. And usually she just likes sitting outside in the sun for hours, Or at night just sitting on the deck in the back staring around and who knows what but she hasn’t done that all week. Due to it being too hot.
We were going to go to the annual Vintage Grand Prix that's held downtown but we got an invite to spend the day poolside at my parents neighbors. The GP is great but I have a feeling the heat would have everyone wanting to leave within 20 minutes so swimming it is.

Would love to keep cool but, of course, this is not a goos time to sit still. Spent the past 3 days clearing out parents’ basement and garage. Sweat my butt off in the basement, but that was a pleasant memory when in the garage yesterday. WOW! Had to be 130 in the loft. Couldn’t stay up there for more than a few mins at a time.
Ordered a 30-yd dumpster thinking it would be more than enough. Turns out we filled it past the top, and that does not even include some of the bigger jobs I was looking to do. SIGH. I just hope they take it the way it is without a fuss.

Drum roll please. The well loved Pilot was retired for a very nice 2016 Audi Q5 Premium Plus with technology package, mat
wood, 19 inch 5 star wheels, 26000 miles. Though my wife is sad to part with the good soldier, Mr Pilot, she is doing a happy dance with her Q5.

Thanks all. We were down to zero car payments so I couldn’t have that! My wife drove the Pilot daily and frequently long distances. She was starting to get anxious, thinking it might break down or need expensive repair due to the age and miles on the Pilot. My arm was twisted to the point of ‘uncle’ and she’s a happy girl. The Accord will remain in the stable for a while.

I filled up three 30 yd dumpsters cleaning out my mother’s house when we moved in. I needed a 20 yd to clean out the detached garage.

Took the car over to a USAA body shop and not only did they agree with what the BMW collision center said (other than having cheaper prices), they found additional damage I had missed. Estimate is now over $1100 because there is some paint involved.
If you ever wanted to know how to damage $1100 worth of plastic, just tap a late model BMW...

Hey, you lease hackers, any chance of scoring a deal on a GT3? Just had a guy get a quote of almost $3400/mo.
MF is marked up .00100, and the dealer tacked on an extra $15k to the sticker.
Wow, what a deal! Only about 21% over my annual "rent." I could live in a Porsche for a month!
I'll admit that I've become immune to some of the lease deals I've seen. Lots of stuff above 4 figures per month, even on some domestic brands. $1500-2000 for some of the high end German brands.
Saw one deal of an Audi R8 of $30k plus, on a one pay deal.

Then where are you going to live.
FWIW, I'd be willing to bet that the guy that wants that GT3 couldn't afford the payments on a Vega. I could be wrong about that but probably not. And next year he'll fall out of love with it and be even more upside down on his next love thing.

Hey, stop stepping on my buzz! I'm sure there's still a little room left in some city park to throw a tent within a copse of trees. Winter is a couple months distant yet....

Stay cool.
We have a 14’ soft sided pool for the kids (well we use it too) and the water must be 90

They’re asking $55k though which is a bit dear even on a semi in-demand new model.

$3400/mo is $122k over 36 mos. That makes absolutely no sense on a $145k car. Was it one that was loaded up with a full other 911 worth of options?
