I almost traded my Blackline for a Breakout a few weeks ago but my payments would have went up. And I really wouldn't have gained anything. But they sure were trying to get me to switch.

BTW a thousand miles a month isn't "riding it like you stole it".
For some, it's called, "commuting."

You happy? Then it ain't stupid...for the most part.

I took my wife car shopping yesterday, "Just to look", and rolled out 3 hours later with a new MINI Cooper S Countryman for her. How stupid was THAT?

Of course, she didn't bitch when I bought the SG in April, so I guess it evens out...

So you have a four year bike that you never ride and traded it in for a brand new bike you won't ride.

Whatever floats your boat dude.

I was in hot water for about 2 weeks also when I traded my Lo in on the SG. I add stuff and the wife says how much was that, I say oh 100 bucks, 150 bucks Etc. At some gathering dudes are like Damn how much did those bars set you back, that is when I get in trouble, because she is always with me.

It's a moot point and just a tad late now, isn't it?

You should go to the new members area and introduce yourself as this is not much of an introduction really.

Stupid you ask, hell no! Better get all you can out of life before the Left wingers take all your rights away!
The left wingers aren't the ones you should be worrying about. It is the grim reaper who is the real threat here.
