for example: This add says the STS is a good deal at $19,100 WHEREAS my car listing: Car Guru says its OVERPRICED. What gives ? http://www.cargurus.com/Cars/inventorylisting/viewDetailsFilterViewInv entoryListing.action? sourceContext=forSaleTab_false_0&newSearchFromOverviewPage=tru e&cgLocale=en&embedType=NONE&entitySelectingHelper.selectedE ntity=c7750&entitySelectingHelper.selectedEntity2=c7750&uncached =false&showInactive=false&newCarsOnly=false&useInventoryService= true&name=entitySelectingHelper.selectedEntity&includeAllModelsOp tion=false&carsWithRegressionOnly=false&ign-makerId- entitySelectingHelper.selectedEntity=m22&heading=All+Years&ign- modelId- entitySelectingHelper.selectedEntity=d149&includeUnknownTrimOptio n=false&carsWithRegressionOnly=false&ign-carId- entitySelectingHelper.selectedEntity=c7750&ign-car2Id- entitySelectingHelper.selectedEntity=c7750&zip=76205&distance=NA TIONWIDE&filtersModified=true&modelChanged=true&searchChanged =true&sortType=undefined&sortDirection=undefined#listing=53384638

you know I paid 15,000 for my 2006 MINI with 34,000 miles on it and these crazy cats say it's worth 10,050 now....so you can't really trust a robot's evaluations!~

The temptation to drive recklessly exists especially this seven mile hairpin section of hwy 29 thru to where calistoga flows out of the side of the highway wall bring your own jug...free- thru the Robert Lewis Stevenson state park and boy lordy, you'd better have your eyeballs in, and there are passing lanes and lunatics who just want to get immediately though glorious redwoods and rock formations immediately, come hell or high water~
