Did I overreact? Naw.

While refueling today, a fellow drove up and asked if my coach is for sale. My immediate and emphatic answer:

No it isn't. Never.

He drive away.


I want this to be my last coach. It's definitely my best.

I had a guy ask me if I wanted to sell my dog. I said no but the next time, I'll be quicker and tell him I've got friends in South America that would love to buy his daughter. Want to sell her?

DW corrected me. My response wasn't exactly as stated.

When we finished a street race car we would paint on the reverse glass "for sale"  and a phone number.  Was always for sale for the right price,  Start at $150k?  stop at $140k and take his temperature?

I like my answer. Even a crazy high price would leave me needing to find another. The one I have is perfect for me, and very few 38' no tag one slide coaches were made. Maybe as many as three.

Tom has no use for the 200 k the dude probably had in a pillow case just itching to spend.. Sure sign of extreme wealth.

I doubt his best cash offer would be enough to pay for a tank of diesel.

Had a boy ask to buy a car of mine.. I gave him a price I would take even though not particularly for sale... Says ok I will take it but I have to talk to my wife first.. WTH son do I look like someone with a lot of time to waste.. Talk the talk and it stops there. Happens all over.

Conversely, I'm sitting in the garden at a friends home about 15 yrs ago and a fella sticks his head over the fence and asks my pal if he wants to sell his house. My pal says " how much" the fella says $600,000. My pal says $650,000 and you've got a deal, a little over a month later he moved to Tucson. Yes he sold.

Oprah went to the nicest house overlooking the ocean in Santa Barbara and knocked on the door.  "Is this for sale"  the owner said no.  She said how about 50 million?  For a house worth $10m.  He told his wife we are moving

Life is nothing more than a series of upgrades.
ALWAYS remember to upgrade, sometimes it's difficult to tell. You made a good choice IMO
