now snoop, there's something we can sorta agree on - I prefer Dodge, but
have owned Toyota/Honda (but since I do almost all my own
repairs/maintenance {MVMR grad with 92% :-) } I hate doing things like
Honda
electrical repairs), no too much a Ford fan (except for the new 500, but
really hate Taurus).
However, if that's not what sells, then why are you paying attention to it
and knwoing the prices, etc? And that's even more motive for downgrading
those are are.
SO let's see, looking in the S'toon yellow pages for smaller places that
might likely not deal much with im****ts (since any bigger dealer tends to
have to deal with whatever makes them $ on trades or whatever), could you
be
Red Tag Auto Sales on Idylwild? or Country Roads on 20th St?
http://www.daouauto.com/
on 20th St? maybe
http://www.greenlightauto.ca??
CitiWide on Ave C? ahhh, how about
Thoen's
as they have lots of mainly domestic stuff? or p[erhaps one of the
smaller
operations like Len Olfert, Prairie North, Moralls', Yellowhead, Lock Auto
(also lots of domestic), K & S, Grassland, Chapparal??
