The car is a gift for the wife. Was making it perfect in time for a certain date. Upgraded from a 20-year-old economy car. Its a very nice upgrade

The car was given to me by family. It has 70k miles on it and one owner. Looks new. Figured worth the love.

LOL my buddy says that to me because I use a 5% gas card to earn 5% cash every month (automatically deducted from the statement). He says this is a no-no even though I pay in full every month. I'll say back at him, if I filled up the tank for $40, started to drive away, and a man on a loudspeaker said, "Hey buddy with the Lexus, you just left $2 sitting at the pump," I'd say nah, DR said to leave it!

Like the mat and I never knew it was different on a UL!

I bought a trunk matt on ebay for $65 and shipping was free. Not for a UL but.... I will sell it for nothing, but shipping will be $300.

Dave Ramsey would say choose the $46.52 delivery instead of the $219.35 because given the logistics of deliveries in today's age, the actual delivery may only be a day or so later, and even likely the delivery may be received at the same time irrespective of the method chosen when delivery choices are for multi-day later deliveries. Then you will have $172.83 which may be used for something else nice for the wife or for savings. (While no use crying over spilt milk, may be valuable information for future reference.) LS430s are nice....

For example, since my ThinkPad is a business class laptop it came with a 3 yr warranty. If I were to open a case online, replacement parts came next day air--from 70 miles away. One would say, why in the world would Lenovo do that? The item will reach me next day by ground. This happened 5X.

Contrast with Delta Faucets--2/5 times the parts they sent me never reached me. They used UPS Surepost. They ate the part, but me? I waited more than 30 days for an aerator, and a set of stems. In this day and age that is crazy. Kohler? Call today, it will be on my steps Monday, possibly Saturday. They use regular UPS, not Surepost. my .02 on shipping
