I am definetly going to the tobay fest, So I'll see ya there if you are going, I am from Bethpage..My usually cruise includes the Valley stream area..as well as Sayville/Patchogue area.. ( meaning thats where I can usually be seen, I take Southern State to 27..) , Id definetly be interested in meeting up. Another good thing, I live in an apt where after 8:30, I have a giant open parking lot in front of my place, just in case we ever need a spot to meet, it could prolly hold about 40-50 cars.

Blue gt....been around for 6 months. The the question about zaino;You can only order zaino products through their website HERE. I use it and recommend it to everyone if they have some free time washing and waxing.

Regards,
Rich

Here's the deal. The NY Trial Lawyers Association managed to keep an 80 year old law on the books which essentially allows a plaintiff to sue the manufacturer of a leased vehicle, say if, the driver was drunk. The term is "vicarious liability" and NY is the only state in the Union that has it. So many companies, including Chrysler, GMAC and Ford no longer lease. They now offer balloon loans to keep the payments down, but you do pay tax on the whole price of the car, as Shocka pointed out, as opposed to the tax on the lease payments themselves.

Just wanted to know if anyone did their purchase this way, as opposed to straight financing.

Well yea, there is always the lot in front of my place, however, I live above a business, so the lot is crowded during the day, the place closes at 8Pm, so after that, the lot is all mine. =P But if you're lookin for a place to meet up around like 1...if its on a sunday, I would say we could meet at the NCC campus, should be pretty empty...but the theater is good too..We could also do Jillians parking lot in Farmingdale..Either way, Im down to meet up.
