“The new car dealer is the customer’s advocate when it comes to warranty work and service on a manufacturer’s product, and this bill will protect that.”

Gutbusting laugher of the day.

Direct to consumer. Contract with regional shops for warranty work

So you’re pointing out DeSantis is far less experienced in DC battles than Trump?

Less experienced in dealing with the swamp?

Unfamiliar with what he would face?

Yes I agree 100%

Good Governor though.

So get a loan for a new car and then pay it off very quickly?

Would there be a penalty by paying a loan off too quickly?

What would stop Trump from pushing gum control if he did not have to run again?

Then so did Trump.

But watching the World Series is not the same as being a World Series level player.

Toyota dealers around here are notorious for that. I’d really like to consider Toyota for my next vehicle purchase, but I’m not paying a premium like that out of principle.

I wonder if DeSantis will support banning Bump Stocks, wait Trump did that.

Have to deflect don't you? Is this the only thing you can do when DeSantis enacts bad law?

You’re comparing a worthless piece of plastic w/ a spring in it to manipulating the consumer into having to pay more for a vehicle.

But wait, his daddy, the richest man in the world, got special treatment....Imagine that.

But as Florida Politics noted previously, lobbyists, including Taylor Biehl and Jeff Sharkey of Tallahassee-based Capitol Alliance Group, hammered out a deal adding language to the bill that should keep Tesla galleries open.

He’s a distant second place to Pres Trump and is already taking care of “friends”.

In 2018, he had Feinstien giddy, he was saying, “I like going in and taking the Gun’s first, and i’m ok with putting an Assult Wepons Ban on the Tabel.

That was the lowest point of Trump’s Presidency, he was bargaining away our GOD given rights, while the Demon fienstien was giggling.

Didn’t Trump pardon the traitor Kurshner’s father and leave Assange to rot?

Did you read the part where only 2 people in the entire legislature voted against this? Even had he vetoed this, it would have been quickly and easily overturned. It’s rare when a bill get that kind of bipartisan support. I would assume the bill has things each side likes and things each side dislikes. It sounds like it has some good features as well as some bad ones. I don’t this this would be a slam-dunk veto for anyone, even Trump.

Would there be a penalty by paying a loan off too quickly?

The last new car I bought I did just that. I got a $3000 extra discount for financing then turned around and paid the loan off on the beginning of the third month.

After someone totaled that very vehicle in a parking lot while I was shopping I went out and bought my first-ever used car and have been very happy with it.

We are retiring soon and if we can take back our country I will buy both of us one more new vehicle and will probably have to do the early loan payoff to get a decent deal. If we need anything after that it will be used.

Yup....sure did.

Nor did he pardon Snowden.

But I bet that pardon’s for Assange and Snowden will be the first things that DeSantis will do if he’s elected. First thing. Absolutely.

In fact, I’m betting that Assange and Snowden will be on the stage with DeSantis as he takes the oath. Maybe one or both of them will hold the bible for him.

When I saw you could operate a weapon using just your shoulder and the appropriate stance and get the same result as a bump stock, I thought why the hell are they fighting over something that is basically meaningless?
