I'd been out shopping and was walking through a large garage looking for my car. I couldn't find it anywhere and was starting to get worried.

Finally, on a floor with few cars, I saw a group of cops walking around. They kept talking about finding the owner of the car. I got even more worried.

When I walked up to my car I saw that it had been completely taken apart. There was nothing left. Whoever had broken into the car had even taken the seats. It was now a broken piece of metal.

The cop approached me from behind and apologized. It had happened a couple of times before, she said, and they were hoping to catch the criminal.

Would insurance cover this? I asked.

Depends on what kind of insurance you have, she said.

I doubted I had the right type.

I salvaged what I could from the car (mainly some tools that were left in the glove compartment), and walked away.

In the same parking garage, a few floors down, was a car dealership. They had a GM car on sale for $3,333. I took it for a test drive and was sold. I might as well just buy a new car. I had to pick color (green or teal?).
I walked up to the cash register and told them I didn't want it financed.
Are you paying cash then? they asked.

No. I just want to pay a little each month, but I don't want it financed because that ends up just taking long time.

Ok! You can pay a little each month then.

I drove out of the garage in my brand new car. It was beautiful on the inside--it felt like a $30,000+ car. It didn't have a division between the front seats, just one long seat.

I can't remember what color it was.
