i think the proper question should be what did not go wrong with the 89, Dan.

i know Jacob spent quite a while trying to sort out the rats nest of wires and electrical gremlins, but could not get the truck to work properly so they parted it out for more than he paid for It.

We're closed on Sundays, Tom. I would've been there selling it like crazy yesterday but I had SATs.

I'm an ok salesman. I sell about 1,000$ of product every day I'm there (highest price per yard is 31 on the red) and we get a lot of repeat customers
