[QUOTE="C SEVEN GS Bob, post: 230130, member: 3610"] We have had a VERY busy week. With the Canada/ US border closed due to covid we couldn't drive the Corvette down this year. Early last week wife suggested we can't survive with one vehicle at our house in Tucson. I like to golf and she likes to go out and do things while I'm gone. We agreed that it would be nice to have a convertible but with a $10,000 budget it was going to be difficult so we agreed to look and see what we could find. We did look at a couple cars on dealer lots but they were filthy and in poor condition. I did find a private sale posted on our local "nextdoor" site and we agreed to meet the lady owner in a open parking lot on Wednesday. Wife fell in love at first site and expanded our budget by a couple thousand more to close a deal. She was also quick to point out that this would be HER toy and I could have the Acadia to haul my golf clubs. Picked the car up on Thursday and spent most of Friday giving it a very thorough cleaning inside and out. Happy Wife = Happy Life and she does let me drive when we are out together. Negotiating; Happy owner; her baby at home:[ATTACH type="full"]74515[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]74516[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]74517[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
