You can make more than 3% back using a lot of credit cards now. Yup. Dealers get kickbacks now by referring to financing Quote

When I made the deal on my 24 Renegade XRS the total owing is on the "total financed" line. Can't wait to see their face when I write a check. Quote

Now if it's buying something from you as a private deal, that's a different story, but thats obvious. Quote

The points and protection gleaned from CC is unbeatable. 1 Quote

At most he's paying the difference between trade in and new sled value. Trade in for a trapper edition sled driven by 65 year old men is relatively good. Quote

I guess when your trying to live outside your means trying to keep up with the Jones's that is a big expense, probably 2 boat payments Quote

Who’s trying keep up with the Jones? You try so hard…Steve buys a new truck every year and pays cash, is it him? Derp has 3 boats and a propellor collection, him maybe? Quote

Guest Posted September 9, 2023 Posted September 9, 2023 Sad and pathetic is when a wife is beaten and abused and then decides her abusive hubby is a good man and runs around defending him from everyone else at all costs. I won't assign any positions, they are obvious. Quote

Guest Posted September 9, 2023 Posted September 9, 2023 Operator error obviously. You're an add gas and oil guy as you admitted being scared of a fucking jackshaft bearing FFS. Guys like you HAVE to trade in as you can't maintain shit. Quote
