Bad News: I've given up on the T/A ;_;
Good News: I have full cosigning benefits as promised in writing from my parents for a 2010 1SS RJT Camaro. Which means I win..
Their/my rationale for this decision: I saw the bill.. shat brix and saw what they were whining about. No way in hell it would have worked even if I could have done it. Also..a little fortune cookie helped in the decision as well. Nuff said, condolences for the failure, then voluntary thread lock if the Mods wish it.
TL;DR: Sucks, but I'm going to hold out a little longer for the Camaro after a peptalk and the cosigning agreement.
