Nash being a founding member of American Motors, along with several other
companies with small marketshare, I'm still correct that it was an AMC
design, though I didn't know the design was quite that old.

Really? Hmmm... I knew some dealership mechanics and they made pretty good
money. $20+/hr on a flat rate = a handsome income. Most mechanics turned
around 80 book hrs. a week working a 5 day week from 8 AM to 5 PM, with an
hour lunch. Do the math: $20 x 80 = $1600 gross/wk = $83,200 per year while
working 40 hrs. a week. Like I said, $20 PLUS per hour FLAT RATE. Doesn't
sound like lower middle income to me... Of course, they were ASE certified,
and I'm sure they had other manufacturer specific certifications to boot.
They weren't typical chop shop grease monkeys.

BTW, who's whining about it? I only commented on the original post and after
several back and forth responses it turned into this conversation. It was
not a whine session, only informative.

You're right, those whom have already have made a fortune need not
worry, it's just the idea of being surrounded by traitors, that pisses
me off. I just wish Japan and Germany would buy a few more worthless T
Bills to drive up their interest rate.
