Well its been a truely educational if I must say the most..  The scaryiest thing i have come across is a Car Dealership closing down due to gas prices sky rocketing and no one wanting to buy cars.. 

I recently talked with one of the Managers of the Dealer Ships and here is what he had to say about everything:

Me: How is the gas price affecting you?
Manager of Dealership: Hard, business is slowly fading away.
Me: What scares you the most?
Manager of Dealership: Finding a other job to support my family, I see all these other dealerships going the way of DODO, and never thought it would happen to me. 
Me: Have you tried other methods of trying to sell the cars?
Manager of Dealership: Yes, we have cut prices, offered money back on certain models, but nothing people come and look but the with gas prices rising they cant afford to buy the car they want.  We cant give them away then we would lose money on it.. 
Me: Its has to be hard seeing others around you close shop and knowing your next.. 
Manager of Dealership: Yes it is, even if we sell one car its not enough.. It would be sooner or later I would see that car abandon on the street because the person couldnt afford to get gas.. 
Me: I never thought of it that way.. 
Manager of Dealership: Neither did I at the time, I feel bad for the other dealers trying to find work to support their families.
Me: That is so sad.. But anyways thanks for your time.
Manager of Dealership: No problem..

There you have it, car dealer closing shop not being able to sell cars, because of the gas prices rising.. 
This is RAMiles saying KEEP THE GOOD FIGHT GOING and NEVER GIVE UP
