Sorry Justin... I know it must be heart breaking to see those cars go, especially ones that are in good condition. The only reason why people think they're clunkers is because they probably were never taken care of.

That really sucks about the Firebird. That guy could have sold it for more money instead of trading it in so it gets destroyed. I had a good interview today. They want me to come in and work part time for a couple of days to see if I'm a good fit. Companies are doing that more and more often now, I guess they can't be too sure. They eventually will look into heath insurance in the near future but there isn't any now. I have until Jan or Feb until COBRA runs out so I'm sure, if they offer me the job, I will have health insurance before then (or make my fiance marry me LOL!!!!).

Well this thread started out great with the whole champagne, sex, donuts, popcorn, Monte's and such.

Then I saw that red Firebird in the CFC program.

This whole CFC thing is such a waste of so many great cars.
