For me, if I'm in his shoes, number one, it means reliability.
I have to be able to get to the job and get the sale made, right?

Okay, so we're not going to put him in a smart car.
I rest my case.
So, yeah, it needs to be reasonably comfortable.
But what people do in your old situation is instead of buying a $20,000 car that would do all of that and destroying $20,000, they buy a $60,000 car and destroy $60,000.
And that's not necessary to get the job done.
So I would buy a $20,000 car with an every-two-year replacement plan.
And I would pay cash for it.
You're breaking up, honey.
You have to walk back to wherever you were.
And hers loses 60% in the first year.
That's the lesson here.
Just whatever it is, you're destroying that amount of money.
So destroy the least amount of money possible to get the job done.
