 Well, I have a related question.  I have an '86 Dodge that runs fine for 10 or

 What is the blue book on an "86 Dodge with flames and smoke? 
(Louis, that's *funny*!)

Uh, the blue book value is -$10,000 -- you'd have to pay me to take
possession of it.

I hate to tell this guy but I think the last thing most of us wants is
