No market adjustments, no upsells...

I got notice this past Thursday that my Maverick had been delivered to the dealership and was ready for pickup.
Heck! I was expecting later this week! I had to move some money around and thought I was going to have to wait until this week regardless, but my Dart decided to continue its electric...

Man, it looks so good.

It sounds like a lot, sure, but only because the trend for wages has been TERRIBLE...
