Man....one of these days I REALLY learn to say "NO!" when it comes to a car deal, but DAMN....I can't help it!!!! It's a freaking ADDICTION, I tell ya! Especially when I have more room now

dude, get all you can while it is still availiable, plus if you have the room, historical plates are cheep and so is moth balls so invest in all you can while you still have time

It's not that you need to quit buying, ya just gotta sell some of those cars....sell the Firebird, Jimmy, and Voyager. There, problem fixed....
