Market commentary

An ideal car for your (our) kids. Too slow and too small to get in trouble, but with a big stereo to distract them from its shortcomings. Bought for kids car money, too. The bidding on it was instructive. Started off slow and nearly sold for $3,000. Some people looked up and realized that, although it wasnt what the Meadow Brook crowd was seeking, it was worth more and had utility value. Bidding quickly resumed, with this result.
