    Man that's a pretty high percentage rate. Probably presumed it was easier to an O/O than it actually is. Wonder what the rate was for people who were in a lease purchase?

    You got a deal. Get one for 12k and have a rebuild you can't hardly beat that.

    Sounds a lot better than what you were looking at. Course you're not in Texas. Sure have to know what goes or doesn't go out of each region...Could really get screwed if not prepared.
