Got Some OBS respect yesterday...

[moviewithnotitle]

Was driving on Rt17 north in Maywood, NJ in heavy traffic(3-5mph crawl) a guy in a Jeep GC pulled up next to me...

Guy: "Hey what year is that"
Me: it's a 96
Guy: "Real nice looking, I really love those older Chevy's, yours looks great"
Me: Thanks
Guy: "If I can find a good one I am gonna pick it up"
Me: go for it!

Then traffic started to move. It was validation for the work I have been doing over the last few months. There was also a brand new Ford p/u in front of me, and a late model Chevy p/u behind me. So I was feeling even better about the convo.

Nice.. Same kinda thing happened to me the other day. Local police officer follwed me into my work parking lot, never turned on his lights or anything, but just wanted to tell me how nice my 2 door was. Said he had been looking to get one, but everything he had seen were rust buckets.

Anyone can keep a new car looking nice. It takes a special kinda person to keep a 15 year old truck still looking good.

Did you ask if he's on any forums? Those Limiteds are hard to find in good, clean shape. I see them from time to time around here but most of the time they are beat up and well used.

Saw one last month and told the guy to join up.

Haha that's happened to be twice, once was on the road, and the other i was in a parking lot and a couple drove by giving compliments, then offered $7000 to buy. I said no and walked away like a *******

 

[07Burb]

it's understandable to walk away from $7k. At least it wasn't $10k or something

 

[Monstar_est87]

I told him about the forums and my user name and he said he would join soon so hopefully we'll b see a new member soon...
