<P>Terry,
<P>I'm sorry you won't be in Chicago too, your posts are always =
interesting
and it is clear that you are a great guy, it would have been nice to =
meet you
in person.
<P>In our area almost all the techs drive Volvo wagons--Volvos have =
the image
worldwide of being well engineered and well made, great technical =
machines,
and that image is pretty good for a tech to have. Also, it is an =
acceptable car to be sitting in the driveway of even the most posh =
homes, so
your clients are not embarrassed--although not quite as good as a =
Mercedes ;-(
<P>Wishing you better luck,
<P>Diane
