    Chris....I served with a guy at NAS Meridian, MS. He'd just come back from a couple of years in Iceland. He'd saved most of his paychecks while there. He found a local beautiful young girl....married her and bought a new Fiat............He had the same experience.......got rid of the wife and the Fiat!

    The first new car we had when I was a teenager was a Fiat 128. That was my first and last experience with Fiat. Been through a couple wifes too but, that speakes more about me than them. Good luck with the knobs Ken and remember, they won't be right next to eachother so, minor imperfections won't be seen. I wonder if that works for husbands...

    Absolutely NOT. ALL imperfections are not only seen, but magnified ten-fold and mentioned long after the "imperfect one" has been led to believe he is in the clear! DAMHIKT!!!

    I just opened a bottle of my favorite beverage before reading this and thought I had had enough already then realized that I must have stumbled on a bunch of former alter boys chatting.
