Talking J.D. Power Shopping Survey

I found this one funny.

Today a 7 page survey came in the mail to the house from J.D. Powers and Associates labeled "2005 SL Vehicle Shopping Survey"

This is going to be fun. I am going to become a statistic.

Oh my, are they in for a treat...don't forget they throw out the "outliers" statistically, so if you're too harsh, you'll be deleted! Sad, but true.

Thank you for that advise.

There is only one thing worse than being a statistic and that is...a deleted statistic.

Yeah. I got one shortly after I bought my car. They even sent it with a crisp $1 bill in the envelope for me to keep. I didn't fill it out. A few weeks later, they sent me another one with another crisp $1 bill. I didn't fill that one out either. I though, if this keeps up I can retire early. A few weeks later, they sent a shortend version with no $1 bill, which I completed and returned.
