    Well, that's great. I hope it works out at the FLM place, then.

    I can't believe I just said something in favor of Ford/Lincoln/Mercury! :eek: :D

    I don't know what the hell happened with the FLM dealer. I would have put money on me nailing that job.

    Anyways, I have to meet with an owner Saturday afternoon about running one of his used lots right here in town. I'd be doing it all. I'd have a 30-40 car inventory. The only bad thing is that I'd get no day off other than Sunday. Good thing is closing time is 6pm M-F and 3pm Sat. So I'd get more time with the boys and not be driving over an hour each way. It's gonna come down to the $$$.

    Well, I got the job running a used car lot, right here in town. I start Monday. I'll work a week with the guy that's leaving to get acclimated. After that, it's just me, the detailer and 40-50 vehicles. I do have internet service:D and cable.

    I'll actually have a place to set up an office rig. All I need is a preamp to go with the modded AMC CD8b, AMC 2100 amp or ASL Wave 20s, and the Monitor 7As, 10As or RTA 8TLs. I haven't decided which amp(s) or speakers to take in, yet. What do ya'll think???

    Thanks for all your prayers and gls.:)

    That's awesome news! For the most part you'll be able to run it how you see fit, so there won't be nearly so many stupid, frustrating rules.

    Hope you love it!
