It doesn't make sense. The shooter had no history of violence, or mental illness, yet he goes and does something like this. I'll never understand it.

Good Afternoon guys.

Jim, my gut tells me there is a lot more to this than what they are saying. Because it makes no sense that's why my gut tells me this.

Afternoon Craig. I agree. Especially the part about sending all that money to the Philippines. What's that all about.

Afternoon Gang.

Yea Pat the whole thing is crazy & makes no sense. I'm sure in time they will tell us a lot more. What is going to be interesting is how this will affect business on the Strip. Barrett-Jackson is at Mandalay Bay in two weeks. Will that be affected?

Good Friday Eve Gang.

We went out and bought a new 2018 Chevy Equinox LT AWD. Traded in the Kia. The difference between the Kia & Chevy is no comparison. The Chevy has a 2.0L Turbo I4. with a 9 speed auto. Sorry I won't buy another Ford.

Welcome to a new week Greg & Pat.

We took our new Equinox on a ride after church to June Lakes CA to look at the Fall colors & to have lunch. With only 200 miles on it it avg 28.9 mpg. So I'm sure 30+ mpg isn't out of the question.

The main reason we bought a Chevy is because of the Chevy Service Dept. They had done work for us in the past & they were very reasonable & did good work. The closest Ford dealership doesn't have the best reputation. Its like so many Ford dealerships questionable at best. Plus Chevy's get the best performance / gas mileage. In reading reviews on 2.0L EcoBoost in the Excape that was one complaint that came up over & over was MPG.
