![]() It is because we are trying to place our love on those who do not fulfill our need for love. This is why there are so many divorces and breakups, and why there are so many heavy arguments at the family dinners. This is why we are never fully satisfied with the "love" of the physical world. It is what we each need in order to become fulfilled. Love is the "thing" of the spiritual realm. And what is the central "thing" of the spiritual realm? That one thing that we always seem to be reaching for, waiting for, hunting for as we look for our soul mate or gather together for our family dinners? It is love. Therefore the only things that will fulfill us are spiritual things. "Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit." ( John 3:6)According to Jesus' message, we are each spiritual by nature. If the body is resuscitated the person comes back into the body and describes what they saw after they left the body. The spirit-person rises up over the body and looks down upon it following the death of the body in the hospital. It has been proven in numerous clinical death studies, clinical hypnosis and other scientific research. This is a scientific fact - that the spirit-person leaves the body. They do not reach the spirit-person who drives this physical body and leaves it after the physical body dies. In other words, the material things of this physical world do not reach us. Trying to become fulfilled by dressing them up well and feeding them is like a hungry car driver putting gas in the car and thinking that gas will satisfy his body's hunger. I cannot praise it enough.These physical bodies are temporary vehicles we drive. Tough, I just ** love ** my Toyota Landcruiser. I just checked out the earlier thread you attached, it seems you are not a fan of SUV’s. Did you check around for the price of the item in another dealer somewhere else ?Īnyway just be glad he wasn’t driving a Ferrari or a Rolls I figure they ** really ** screwed you on the price of that lens. Of course the car itself cost me $ 34,254.14 (taxes on cars are murder here) I was really pissed that I had to pay (wait for it…) This Mother-of-all-tailights is about twice the size of the one on the Honda CRV. Now my Toyota dealer only sells the complete assembly with Lens, plastic frame, lamp sockets, wiring harness, and even bulbs. When I heard the price I mentally used the same words you did, I felt even worse as I did it to my own car. I cracked the rear lamp cover on my 97 Toyota Landcruiser. The extra three wheel covers make excellent snack trays, BTW. Set of four cheap, silver-grey plastic wheel covers- $12.00, excluding tax. ![]() I bid a hearty “Good Day” to Smilin’ Import Car Dealer and skip over to nearest Wal-Mart. I make one further comment that the cost of cheap plastic wheel cover and full-size tire for this model are almost identical.ĭealer’s voice is now strained, hoarse, and raspy. I ask if this is a set of four, maybe I was misunderstood?ĭealer’s death grin becomes noticeably painful as he points out that this is per cover. Smilin’ Import Car Dealer’s smile turns into death grin. I pointed out to smilin’ Import Car Dealer that this was a plastic silver-grey Mazda wheel cover, not a wheel cover for the Space Shuttle Atlantis. Cost was a paltry $75.00, not counting sales tax. No problem, says smilin’ Import Car dealer. Skipped on over to the cool import dealership that we bought it from and asked for one neat, silver-grey wheel cover. My wife lost one wheel cover from her 97 Mazda Protege. I bought a new taillight for my pickup last year and the damn thing cost only $35. Instead I get to pay the dealer $45 for 10 minutes of work! FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK! It would take 10 minutes to pop out the old one and screw in the new one. Nope, he insists that the we line the pockets of the dealership. FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK! And no, he won’t let me install it myself. It’s not even a real car, it’s a fucking toy, and it’s going to cost me a shitload of money to fix the damn taillight!. The light itself costs ONE HUNDRED THIRTY FIVE DOLLARS and on top of that they estimate 1 HOUR of labor at 45 DOLLARS so including the taxes the whole bill will be TWO HUNDRED ONE DOLLARS AND 46 CENTS. My fault, I admit it, I was careless, I have to pay for it. And it put a little hole in the damn thing about the size of a dime. As I was backing into my space on Monday, I was a little bit careless and nicked his taillight with my mirror. Well, the taillights on the damn thing are exactly the same height as the mirrors on my car. It turns out that it’s a Honda CRV, not a Toyota. A long time ago, I bitched about my neighbor’s car:
