So I called them. And told them that

1) my dogs would have gone balistic had anyone pulled into my drive..and they didnt.

2) I had people at my store this AM who opened for me. And they said no one came in looking for me

3) and I had told them NO CHECKS. CASH ONLY.

4) they were to meet me at the bank, which I had provided a map and address for...so why would they have gone anywhere but that , but more importantly

5) I had said the deal was OFF. Why would they drive an hour and a half to come do a deal that had been called off?

6) if they wanted the truck now they had to pay extra, for making me lose the other deal and it had to be cash and they had to meet me at the bank and go in with me so that the bank could check their money for conterfeit bills.

well...they told me I was being unfair and that they werent willing to go to my bank, bring cash and pay extra. So I said, no thanks..dont bother me again...end of deal...

so I have a truck up for sale yet...and I am going to lose my PT Cruiser..:::Pout::::
I'm sorry to hear both your deals fell through Miss Tia. But from a mechanic's point of view (and I'm damn good at what I do) you can consider yourself lucky. The PT may be cute (or I've heard people say) but they are mechanically problematic & costly to repair. I believe everything happens for a reason so I feel there's a much better deal coming right around the corner for you that you are going to be very happy about. Good luck with that. Feel free to contact me if I can answer any questions for you or be of any help.
