    Both of you can thank the Shrub for 8 years of disastrous economic policy.

    History is about to repeat itself.

    Sorry. I must have missed it. Who said that the unit of measure of the rate was a percentage?
    It could just as easily be "sales per month" could it not?

    (I worked in the South Pacific for two years a long time ago and became fluent in Polynesian pidgen. Pidgen evolved during WW2 as a result of US servicemen stationed in the South Pacific at that time when a common language had to be developed quickly)

    I decided to finance my model 3 for 36 months when I discovered I could get a 1.49% rate this last December. I figure I can get more than 1.49% by doing other things with the cash.
