BEWARE

Thank God it does not belong to anyone

in this family.  My sun-in-law rented it 

for a business trip.

Is my contempt for the model or the 

brand.?  No.  I did look at the brand,

but have now forgotten what it is.

It is this kind of thing.

I was sitting here at the kitchen table

when I heard a "beep" and the tail gate

went up all by it' self.  There was 

no-one around.

I checked with him.  Did he want the

tail gate up?  He did not even know it

was up.  He had the remote in his pocket

and had accidentally "butt dialed" the car

and the tail gate went up.

That was last night.

Today I happened to look out the window

and the back door was opening all by it's

self.  Yes, he was there with an arm load

of stuff.

Why does that concern me?

I was an auto technician at an automobile 

agency for over one forth of a century.  One

of the things I learned that hard way is that

all of those accessories and convinces break

down and somebody had to fix them.  In fact,

a very high percentage of our repair work was

on accessories, not on things that make the 

car go.

If you buy a car with a lot of accessories 

and convinces they will give you trouble.

If you want more trips to the shop to fix

things, buy lots of convinces to impress 

people with.
