"I just recently got ripped off by trading in my suv for a getto car that is suppose to be a new 2006 Hyundai Sonata. At night time all the roaches come out. It is very embarrising for me and my friends to drive this car. The dealership has not done much to fix the problem except a migraine headache. All they did is give me a rental car for a day so my car could be bombed over night to kill the roaches. Since then, whever chemicals they put in my car did not work and my eyes are always feel like burning sensation inside or irritated as a result of the chemicals. When I went to pick up my car. I could tell that they did not do much. I complained and I found myself going in circles. I would never do any kind of bussiness with these people. I hope you never find yourself in this type of situation."

It appears that a majority, or most i've read, seem to have more issues with their dealership then the actual product. And some of these people are just plain retarded..... Although dudes roach problem sucks.

Pretty sad. If the Market drops 7% every day, in a couple Weeks it will be at ZERO!

The Country of Iceland went bankrupt this Week. We even have a member from there.

You do have your Credit lined up for the BMW right?. I only ask Mama because
Loans are not being written. What happened?

Only because after the first week there wasn't enough value left to cover the $10k from the "drive off the lot" depreciation. :whistling:

But you know what Bites? If things get really bad

and you have to cash that 401K, you will need to pay 30% :w00t:

to the Federal Government, and possibly another 10% to your State.

Subtract the 40% that your 401K has lost since last year when the Market

had just hit an all time High, and you essentially are left with nothing at all :grin:

been there, done that.. the wife needed to do that last year.. she took about 25k out of her 401k (financial necessity at the time unfortunately) and we were socked pretty well - but the real kicker came when we got our taxes done, and when we normally get 5k - 6k back from the gov't, we got a big fat zero...

word of advice to others - DONT TOUCH YOUR 401K UNLESS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY!!!

you'd be surprised what can be in a car... leaves, other bugs (spiders, etc), food bit under the seat, etc, etc...

i've never actually heard of roaches in a car though.. ever.. but hey, there could be a first for everything! :w00t:

Seriously it is quite common, although I have never had the problem. Same

with Ants, especially in Miami. They crawl up the tires and have limited problems

entering the Car!

While I have smoked more non stop Bong hits than almost anyone here, and legally might I add :trophy: , I have not smoked in a Car in about 25 Years. Why they will take you away if caught, and take your Car too. :thumbsup:
