I have spent a little time looking around at used cars to replace the Volkswagen, and I have to say that I have met some of the nicest people in the process, but I have also met some real thieves. It has become a profession with a terrible reputation, but there are good people out there. (ask me their names and I will give them to you)
But the whole process has made me really not want to take part. I would rather give my car to a dealer because if there is anything wrong with it they can fix it. Whereas if you just sell something outright and something goes wrong you feel guilty. Not that this has ever happened to me, but it is always a worry. I had the temperature gauge fixed on Wednesday and my mechanic checked it out and said it was fine. I trust my mechanic (ask me for his name too), but I’d just prefer not to worry about it.
PLUS, I don’t want to sell a car….because first and foremost, I am not a car salesman! I am a priest….okay another damaged profession, but I am one of the good guys! (ask me, and I will give you MY name!) I just don’t have the time or the energy to answer all the calls, or do all the bartering that comes with it. Plus, I just don’t have the ability to anymore either!
But I am enjoying meeting new people. God made them all, and for the most part they are pretty good! I just want to find a car and get on with it! For now however, I will just call it a night!
Goodnight my friends and God Bless!
