Sighing, Jack says. “Cars. Repairs, gas, they’re a never-ending money pit!

“Your old beater sure is, pal,”Jill says. “My new Beemer, she ain’t.”

Jack: “New cars are pre-pitted. You drop 10% off your purchase price the moment you drive it off the lot, and an additional ten in the first year.”

Jill: “Better to be peace-of-mindedly pre-pitted, than never-endingly.”

.   .   .

Jack: “Better to be fun-wheeling in a ’69 Collector Jeep Grand wood-grain paneled Wagoneer than in a stamped-out little Statusmobile.”

Jill: “You mean, fun-wheeling in between pit stops, don’t’ya?”

Jack smiles. “Droll, pal, but there’s nothing like the solid feeling of a real automobile.”

Jill: “Unless of course it’s the smooth, quiet cruising of a gas-light Beemer.”

.   .   .

Jack: “A man likes to know he has an engine beneath him.”

Jill: “Ah, yes, there’s nothing like the grumbling rumbling pit-pit-pit of a man’s motor.”
