Who the hell is proofreading ABC's stories?

"When you look at the composition of the 15 cars almost all of them are customer error," Lutz says. "They bought a Camero and then figured, 'oh hell, this isn't what I needed,' and they bring it back and get something with four doors. We had the case where a guy wanted a manual-transmission Corvette, and he had a difficult commute, and it took him about two weeks to figure out he really should have bought an automatic transmission. So he brought it back and we swamped it out for him," he said.

:doh:

"SWAMPING" it out under water would be much easier that re-doing it as a 6 speed.
Sort of brings back fond memories of the original "Billy Jack" movie where the town tough was forced to drive his vette into the lake, then get out and stand on it while it was sinking.
