When buying a used car you are always are concerned
about the previous owner and if they abused the car and ran it hard. Today I found a CD in the glove box from the preious owner and it leads me to believe that he didn't run the car too hard. Tom Jones, really? or am I stereotyping?

Lol. Might have been TOO easy on her. Cars need to be driven every now and then.

I found a Lou Reed CD in my SC300
Previous owner was probably on LSD, an anarchist, or bisexual.
