Surely we digress, (but what is the USenet for ?) I'm amazed at how little the Salesmen actually know about the cars they sell. If I was a Salesman, I'd study every brochure, every feature, history of the cars, known issues, magazine reports, etc. I'd be a guru. A fountain of information. I can't believe how many Salesmen you run into that don't even know which models come with which features. You learn more in 15 minutes of reading the factory brochure than they know. I found the same oddity in real estate. Agent's don't know their properties. They work a particular area... maybe a dozen properties a week come on the market in the burbs. If I was a RE broker, I'd go see each new property (they all have keys), look it over, and be able to describe it to the potential customer in detail. Instead, they take you out there and are as surprised as you at what you find. I guess I'm to ambitious... speaking of which, I have to go work :-) Bob
