OH My! New Kubota Grand L or New Camaro

[OrangeGuy]

Update....

Had breakfast this morning with my 80 year-old farmer buddies. I was convinced they would steer me toward the practical side and recommend against the Camaro. Just the opposite. Buy the car! My sales rep called with the price...2010 Blue Camaro SS/RS, all the options...$41,085.75 drive out the door. My wife wasn't up when I headed out the door early this morning. Just talked to her...she again said... GO FOR IT! With great apprehension, I am now going to Chev dealer. BY the way, I am a dyed in wool supporter of American branded cars and trucks, regardless of the government help programs. If all knew of the government money thrown at the Japanese manufacturers in Japan, the US government lifeline provided to our manufacturers would pale in comparison. 50 business trips to Japan over the last 20 years has given me insights many here don't appreciation. 101,000 miles on my 2000 Cadillac DTS and 128,000 on my 1999 Chev Suburban with no problems with either has instilled loyalty to the GM brand.

Whoops...I have get off my soapbox and head to town.

P.S. If you hear from me later today, I chickened out. If not, I will be somewhere up in the clouds.

Done deal! The Camaro with the 21 day sticker is out in the driveway. I told the dealer if they couldn't deliver before 1:00 PM it was a deal breaker. I was home with 45 minutes to spare. I'm taking my wife out for dinner again tonight and hopefully she will have two beers this time. We'll see if it has as good a results as last night.

I asked my wife...why? She said I paid her a complement recently along the lines of "she not being my mother". All I can say guys is pay attention to what you are saying to your bride and sometimes you may get lucky. Oh, that didn't sound right. But, you get it.

I am now heading for cloud nine.

You and I work off 2 different systems.

You get permission.

I've learned that it's easier to Beg For Forgivness....Than Ask For Permission!!

2009 is my 50th HS reunion year and the 40th year since I got out of the Ohio Natinal Guard.

Interesting, I just got back from training the 16ENG in Columbus, but they were the Ohio NATIONAL Guard. Never heard of the Natinal Guard.

120 acres? I would have upgraded the tractor and told the missus I'll take a rain check on the car Then I would monitor the auctions for a convertible 67 rs/ss pace car, white with "bota" orange stripe and interior. ...pass along a few more compliments...then cash in the rain check

This is simple, go for the new tractor, afterall Kubota didn't ask for any money from the government to be bailed out like GM did!

That's my kinda thinkin.
