Yes, I did. And so has my good friend Bob. Bob is the service manager for a 
good sized Ford dealership in the L.A. area. All during that Firestone debacle, 
I thought he was going to have a stroke! (People thought the public was treated 
badly-they should have been an employee!) I hope that this recall doesn't 
finish the poor fellow off! (I hope he's leaving one of his British cars to me! 
;-) 

On the post that of three cars in the family, only the Spitfire is running-my 
moment of pay back came last year when my ex-boyfriend, Maurizio, who so 
vehemently opposed my getting the Spitfire, had to ask me to drive him not 
once, but twice to pick up his Sentra from the shop!

I was talking to another of these types last night who think that because he 
has to wear a jock strap, he knows everything about cars-he was critisizing me 
for having an 'old' car as a daily driver. And he was all excited about the 
'new' second car he's getting-reliable, beautiful etc...a used Chrysler LeBaron 
convertible! (I hope he's not paying much, I know several people who'd gladly 
*give* theirs away!)

Crikey!
