If the car gets better mileage, it probably cost less than their old one, probably they are saving on the monthly payment as well as on gas. Reducing their monthly payments can imnprove their credit. Smart choice.

And Samsung don't make cars.

That would be the one, I knew I wasn't too crazy (so I associate computer manufactures with car manufacturers, big deal ). Thanks for digging that up.

I'll admit that there are large areas of cluelessness in me, I'm a bit too nerdy to care about cars THAT much. Maybe some day I'll make a hobby of it.

anyways, thanks for letting me rant guys (and for pointing out my car ignorance, it was worth the good laugh) I guess since there is nothing I can do about it, I can just smile and give my opinion to them when asked.

And they still have 2 cars!, they don't even need or use both of them, My dad is employing both of them and the office is like 800 meters from my parents home.

I call shens...A Riva? then a Samsung X2??? I did NOT know Samsung made cars!@?

Yeah wtf!???! Was it a 4-door Syncmaster?

I"m baaaaaaaaaaaaalllin I got the 730B Syncmaster....7 Series baby

I've given up on offering money advice to anyone. I see co-workers do smart things with their money, and very dumb things. If people ask, I'm more then willing to make suggestions.

People like that make it possible for people like us to buy cars at or below invoice. My sister-in-law married into money and has wasted more money in ten years on full price cars, cameras and laptops than I make in a year. I know how you feel.

The most frustrating thing about stupid people is that there's nothing you can do or say to make them not be stupid. You can only distance yourself from them as much as possible.

If it's that big a deal that she wasted as much as your yearly salary over 10 years, you must make a lot

Ignorance can be cured with knowledge. Stupid is forever.

wait, what were they driving before that makes them think an SUV is getting better gas mileage, a tank?

Translation: (1) HomeAppraiser's brother is wealthy and (2) That wealthy family wastes a few grand a year.

OMG I laughed so hard @ Samsung car and Riva SUV. People in my office started laughing too, but they aren't sure why.
