Anthony

 Anthony is my car guy if there's any problem with my car I take it to Anthony. If Anthony says there's a problem we fix it if Anthony says keep driving it we drive it Anthony's the kind of guy who tells you to fix stuff that needs fixing and ignore everything else. Earlier this year was the most expensive trip in to Anthony there's ever been. It was about 18 hundred bucks. There was a bunch of little stuff wrong it wasn't like the engine failed or the transmission failed or the drivetrain failed or the all-wheel drive failed it's nothing like that it's just a bunch of little stuff some suspension parts needed to be replaced and a thermostat housing had cracked I think there was some sort of cold air sensor but had to be replaced on one side of the exhaust manifold you know just a bunch of little junk and when you drive a 12 year old car made in America that's pretty much what you expect. Now if you get a Toyota or maybe a Honda expect to do that kind of stuff when you get to about 200,000 miles but on American cars you can pretty much expect to do that kind of stuff at somewhere between a hundred and a hundred and fifty thousand miles. American cars are a little cheaper and you fix them more often. So this car pulls a little bit to the right. Anthony has one of his guys take it for a test drive he comes back and he says it pulls to the right. Anthony got that sort of irritated look on his face like yeah it pulls to the right but not very much. Anthony says yeah you can bring it in sometime if you but there was a little sigh at the end that was the real message. the real message was get behind the wheel and drive this thing and quit griping. So that's what we've been doing there's a rattle in the front end there's a squeak in the rear trunk lid. Guess what it's not going to change the world nothing's depending on it you can drive the car 85 you can drive the car 20 it's safe either way just keep driving.
