    So how did it all work out? What I mean is you took the Highlander down to the dealer and let them look at it first I assume. Then they came and took it without her knowing? So you must’ve had to get all her stuff out of it without her knowing. Was she bummed not to be able to say goodbye to it as I would be?

    Nope. They didn’t even look at it. I told them to take it back when they drop off the Camry.

    Lol she came out to the garage today when I was cleaning out the car. I told her I’m re-organizing it :notsure: it was last second and didn’t expect her to come to the garage lol. She fell for it though.

    So, the finance guy I met with was brand new. I mean, a week into the position. Yesterday, he tells me “listen, I’m not sure who you are, but I was told by Matt (my friend- his boss) if this doesn’t go smooth, and you aren’t completely happy I can walk my ass out of the building; so if I so much as say one thing wrong please tell me before Matt.”
