That I hadn't thought of, yet. The big bosses from corporate were at work today. One of them decided that I need a raise because no one in their right mind would drive a Festiva if they could afford something better. Course, he doesn't know that more money = more Festies, but oh well. We'll see if it actually comes through, now.:mrgreen:

I have heard the same thing that I must really be desperate to drive a Festiva until I let them drive mine and then they want to know if I will sell it

most of the "higher ups" here all drive SUV's. Just cruising around by themselves burning up all that gas, what idiots.

I noticed that. Not small suv's even. Like Yukon denalis and expeditions and crap lol. 6000 lbs of steel to carry one person back and forth for like 50 cents a mile lol...Originally posted by big_ty2003 View Post91GL BP/F3A with boost

big ty2003, you might want to point out to them, the next time they say anything, that every gallon of gas they burn buys more bullets/bombs that are used against our troops.Last edited by Pu241; 11-13-2010, 11:10 AM.'93 Blue 5spd 230K(down for clutch and overall maintanence)

I love how I get looks from people that think I am poor for driving my festiva, I have a new car for long trips that sits in the garage waiting for trips, a jeep lifted with a winch, lights and all the gas eating power I need to play in the snow and mud,64 impala lowrider with juice, a garage full of toys like boats, quads, motorbikes, minibikes but hands down I would give them all up for my festiva!Comment

Yeah, I guess you'd call it a sympathy raise. No idea how much yet. Guess I'll see when I get paid next week. I thought about arguing with him as to the overall awesomeness of my car, but decided I'd just be quiet and take the money.Originally posted by bhazard View Post
