.......was instructed on how to commit insurance fraud by a car dealer.

Sad really. Some people are sooooo out of touch with reality. Sounds like the guy didn't even understand the concept of selling something to make space or free up funds for something more.

You are sentenced to own and drive a 2003 Chevy Cavalier for 3 years...during which time you must keep it running and on the road by your own efforts alone....

Okay, I get the first part, but isn't there something in the Geneva Convention that bans the second part as cruel and unusual punishment??

Not as long as the kid can post questions on CR4 and ask for help.

Maybe the kid's next (expensive) transport should have Mayan Wheels fitted ... and if calendar's mind control doesn't educate him that his best by date has come and gone, let's hope a wheel falls off and he gets squashed. (An example of natural selection in action).

But Deddy, it has a tire that is flat on the bottom. Shall I call the conflagration services you used to take care of that horse stable in the Humptons?
