We should have a pool to see how long it takes…..Jeff has some decision making issues :), much like the bone head on the Prestone Coolant\Antifreeze TV commercial.

I figured he'd ride out the term of the lease since he got himself such a bargoon, not to mention the time needed to choose the replacement. 

So what will it be Jeff?  As mentioned, you can't drive that Civic too long, when momma ain't happy, ain't nobody happy.

Boy that's the truth.  The missus is telling me that next week if I don't have a solution, I'm finding a rental car.  I've emailed a guy an offer on a replacement this morning (a lease takeover) and I'm waiting to hear back.  If it goes through, it'll be a steal... if it doesn't, I'll be in search mode.   I shan't say more for fear of jinxing the deal.  Rest assured though, as soon as I have something noteworthy to report, stories and pictures shall be posted.

My bet is that little guy is going to be visiting the BMW dealership.  He's always going on about how he misses that old e36 328i he used to have......e90 for him.

A Sea-Doo? Jeez, Jeff, that's a nothing to waste good car money on IMO. Talk about instant depreciation and useless for about 11 months of the year (and there are lots of them here).

Tell wifey ALL your buddies on CD think a SeaDoo is a waste.....heheheh.... ;D ;)

A Sea-Doo is something to RENT if you really feel the need to make a lot of noise and ruin the day for everyone else, not to BUY.  :P ::) ;D

Seadoo.....might be better off with a 16 ft. boat.  At least you can fish from a boat.  And take more than 1 passenger.  And if so equipped, tow a skier/tuber behind.

I don't think you can rent a sea-doo in Ontario anymore, any of the places here shut down.... insurance issues.

I'll believe it when I see pictures of a Yaris posted.   :-*

High flying marketing exec going downmarket?  But I guess that's a relative term....an RX8 without leather is downmarket right honey?   :rofl:

Should we start a pool?  Place your bets.

I also don't see the use of a sea-doo?  Kind of like Nascar.  Go straight, turn left, go straight, turn left....repeat.  But to each their own.  I noticed that they still rent the 2 seater small boat/big sea-doo (not sure what it really is) down at Harbourfront.

Personally I rather paddle a kayak to an empty island and set up camp.  :hello:

Yank a deal on a Civic Si.

And make it red - It's like you'd be going back in time a decade  :rofl2:

And you could leave your clients behind too. Or take their luxury mobiles.

Or, if by this time you've paid enough associates to become your clients and you offer them rides to lessen their expenses, the Mazda5 would naturally suit your style too.  ;D
