They have been mine at different times. The Vipers are gone right now but I am shopping for another. In answer to your question, I sell Vacuum Cleaners. No kidding, that is honestly what I do. I was told when I was a kid, "Do one thing, it doesn't matter what it is, do it better than anyone else and you will be very successful".
I listened.
I sell Vacuums and I do fairly well at it. I have been hired as a consultant by major manufacturers to train other retailers to do what I do. Ask any kid what they want to be when they grow up, and you will never get the answer "Vacuum cleaner guy" I didn't want that either but it is what I started with and have stuck with it all these years.
OK, I didn't intend to get on my soap box, but if I can motivate anyone else to try hard and work for what you want, I feel like I have helped. I have been blessed. I like to joke around and bust ***** but I also like to help when I can. That is why I open my personal shop on weekends and help friends work on their cars. I have everything from multiple lifts to my own alignment set-up and every hand tool in between. I never have charged anyone that I help and let work in my garage.
What goes around comes around. I help others and....

Probably clean the snow from the driveway better than the snow blower too! C4C, good advice! When I first got in the trade, I was taught that "A professional is someone who does their job to the best of their ability, even when they don't feel like it". Served me well for 20 years now.

I hate to crush you even further, but two years ago I was selling those for $950. now they sell for about $1200. Still too much money, but half the price of everyone else.

Heres my clean car pic....
I guess you are off the hook....I saw this at my credit union. Bruce Lee is ALMOST cool compared to this. Btw, a guy was driving this car.

Bruce Lee is different.... I'm not saying bad...... but I'm not saying great either. Now if it were the Mopar symbol I think it would look very cool.
