Perhaps Midnight Mystery is RockyBoy's deranged brother who's off his meds?

Can anyone code up a shortcut script for RBjr that could automatically convert his ellipsis to a carriage return for him?

it's pretty easy...
he had a car he loved that got totaled.
he was sad but was sharing the link in hopes some other enthusiast buys the car and fixes it up so he he would know that someone else loved the car too and got a ton of years of pleasure out of it too, like he did.

Yeah, I'm alright, I'm going to track it down... Hope to buy it back one day... I've said for many years now Kia and Camry forever, and if my intentions are as strong as my feeling, that should be the case, but it will be years to get there again... If more people complain, I'm gonna bump and old thread from 2009 that is very similar, with way more damage, and a better ultimate outcome... None of the airbags deployed, the seatbelt a didn't even stay locked after... I also gave them the new rear bumper cover which I'd didn't yet have painted and installed... I also have a stock front grille, two HID retrofit headlights (problematic), and the stock intake, and other parts I could give to whoever bought the vehicle at auction... If it wasn't for the other guys wheel hub and lug assembally it wouldn't have punched so deep into the radiator, condenser, and frame rail the radiator sits on... It's not a big deal... I will likely new own a vehicle worth over $10k ever again, I just can't see why I can't wait a few years and the the value go down a bit... Anything over $15k20k is just a straight up waste of money to me... As for the guy so said "His car was totaled and he has an emoting all acchment", thank you, you got it very, very right... Still laughing about the tipsy thing.... And no, I'm not RocyBoy, I don't know him, I looked through his post, I love including the details of a story to evenly and fairly convey points and statements, though they don't always come out right, once again, stupid refurbished crashed twice iPhone 4S... No, unlike RocyBoy, I do not post under the wrong thread ctagory about the wrong topics... I wanted to post under Off-Topic, I would have, but I can't because I'm a new member for 15 days, so Car Talk, was the next best thing, but I had a feeling Car Talk was a BS page, ya know, where the Ricers like to SH*T talk... Now that I've got that over, I do NOT rate the attractiveness of any living being who looks at my vehicle, quite honesly, I don't care, and don't want much attention, unless it's people trying to figure out what it is... I'm not trying to create an image as a Fly Boy looking for rich boy trouble... I'm just very descriptive and it kills me to use SLANG, if it were up to me, every song thing written of typed would be grammatically correct, I do however like run-on sentences, it gives on me voice, I type or write, just as I would speak... I type from the mouth, I figure someone will copy that and crack a remark soon, so I beat you to it... Over and Out.....🖕🏻

Basically a little sprinkling of every story ever told in the history of written communication, I think.

You must be really young if you figure 15k for a car is a waste. Granted, it's a depreciating asset, but it's also nice if you don't have to repair something every weekend. That shit adds up and it can be quite costly also. Plus, your time is worth something too.
The word is still out on your relation to Rockyboy, though

I just can't imagine spending $40-50k on something I can get for under $20k in just a few years... Take the 2013 Nissan Pathfinder my sister got in August 2013... I think she paid nearly $41k new, now, with just under 40k miles, it's only worth around 26-29k... CPO is the way to go.... Honestly, all she will need soon is tires... We got this 2007 Kia in November 2008, 14 months after the original owner, who I knew personally, bought it new... It only had 2,500 or 3,500 miles on it, I can't remember off hand... Anyway, my point is we paid about $14k for it a year old, it it got us just over 7 years without a single problem at all other than a bad jump start from another vehicle wich fried out both oxygen sensors, but then again, that was human ignorance... Personally, I just think it's insane, I mean, last time I checked, a new vehicle costed $25,000 well equipped, then again, this is an Acura forum, so everyone probobly spent $35k or more new... Also, I don't like new interiors, they just feel too cheap and way too many buttons and screens... I sat in the new RDX, MDX, ILX, and TLX, all of them were quite odd... I absolutely hate the push button gear shift, I don't like the spaceship interior, I'd love to have a CB7, yes, I love that interior... As for fixing stuff, I have a 2001 Toyota Camry 2.2 auto, it needs and engine, but that's beside the point, bad advice on fixing a small oil leak... Anyway, I've never had anything go wrong mechanically, mainly just window motors and regulators, broken driver door handle, and kinked sunroof drain tube which all of this is normal and has happened since brand new to many, many gen 4 owners... My now brother in law just got a 2012 Jeep, ex rental, Liberty for $14,995, it was just over year old, 75,000 miles, in October 2013... My brother also got a 2008 Suburban in February 2014 for $14,995, he traded his 2008 Honda Ridgeline, wich he got new in 2008, he said, I qouote, "never again, I waisted too much money", I've got it instilled in me... So here's the dailys I've been in and now drive, so this is the past two decades...
1987 in 1996
1986 in 1997
1994 in 2000
2001 in 2006 (still have)
2007 in late 2008
2007 in 2016
So now you understand, and for the person that said, I can't argue that now, because I can't remember their post... I just see 2015 Jettas going for $12,495, my heart says that's the way to go, 0-60 in 7 seconds, 600 miles on a highway tank, however, I'm a little unsure of the reliability... My sister just rented one a few weeks ago for a 1200 mile round trip, she really loved it... Very large trunk as well... I'm not supporting one vehicle, I'm using these as examples for many great makes and models... However, if people didn't buy them new, no one could get them used, pre-owned.....

So Mystery Meat, would you rate the Kia Sorrento a 9.5/10?
Also, did you forget your ADHD medication with your Lucky Charms this morning? Just curious.

For the person that said I rate the Kia Sorento a 9.5-10.0, it's a 2007 Kia Sportage LX 2.0 I4 4 speed auto, champagne with biege cloth/fabric... It has 140 hp, 133 lb ft torque.... Does 0-60 in 9.97 with two occupants, 2-3 gallons of fuel, 40 psi in the tires, 93 octane fuel, and a short ram intake... It is peppy, like a 1998-2002 Honda Accord if you've ever driven one... As for the Kia, the harder you rev it, the faster you go, it has NO low-end torque... But it is fun to drive... Average MPG is about 17-26, but it varies...
