    Taxi was funny. Little Danny didn't have to act. He just had to play himself. ;)
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

    That's creepy, Jody.
    And it also looks eerily like most social media selfies I've had the misfortune of having rammed through my optic nerves the past few years.

    Yup, how could I leave out Taxi?

    Yup. An actual Monroney sticker with the dealer "add ons". They used to label it "Dealer marketing" but people started realizing that this cost was already included in the Monroney sticker and folks would refuse to pay it. So, they just got truthful about it.

    30K extra to the dealership.....just to sell you the vehicle. It usually only happens when a particular car is in extreme demand at those prices though - read - a limited edition Corvette Stingray or something that the dealership knows they can get away with. A Bronco though? LOL

    Agreed - Even Ford fans gotta admit that the "new" Bronco is a huge disappointment...

    And the extra $500 for the fake ceramic coating to really add insult to injury. Incredible.

    If a dealership charges $500 to put on a ceramic coating, be rest assured that they didn't spend over $100 to get it done.
