Business is ok. It is more like "let's see how much crap I can sell, to be able to afford a car that is old enough to not be worth a whole lot, but new enough to not be worth a whole lot, and still be sized as to accept something larger than a horse jockey." It was a tough find, but I did it. It's also cheaper because its not red, and has almost no options. AFAIC, a car like this doesn't even need a radio, much less all that other frilly garbage.

habiliment

DEFINITION

noun
1: characteristic apparatus : trappings
2 a : the dress characteristic of an occupation or occasion — usually used in plural
2 b : clothes — usually used in plural
