When I'm in the market for a car, I'm ready to go wherever like RIGHT NOW for the right deal if it presents itself. A couple years ago my phone rang, it was a friend in Illinois who knew a small rural bank manager. They had just gotten a nice 964 C2 on voluntary repo, and all they wanted was what the loan payoff was, $18k. I was on a plane the next day!

When I wanted a VW Eurovan for my shop vehicle, I looked everywhere in Seattle. $12k and up for for a used-up '99 model in 2006. In Columbia, Missouri they are $6k! One plane trip and 2 days later I'm back with my van.
I've done the plane ride and drive home so many times I lost count. This is the first time I flew home instead of drove. Oh well!
