Have fun with whatever you're moving on to next.

Now who am I going to yell at when my car doesn't arrive on time?

No danger of the dark side, however there is real threat he might rock up to a cruise one day in a grandpa gold super special and a cardigan work car. Having said that though, he will be involved in a position that will fully utilise his skills as a salesman that he has gained from learning from the guys at Strapps.

Not only is it great to have a mate like sathy who I have known as a best mate for nearly 15 years but it was good to know one of the states best new Ford salesperson, who had a good sales record and a few career highlights at Strapps to show for it

Congratulations on the move mate. It has been a pleasure dealing with you over the last almost decade and I am sure that you will have continued success in your future endeavours.

This is still your spiritual home ... please consider!

Cheers
Russ

Thanks Everyone. Everyone who knows Strapp Ford knows although Luke Skywalker has left, there is still Yoda (David Cox). He is without doubt the best Ford Salesperson you could ever deal with. If you need any New Ford, give him a call on 8848-1222 or send me a PM and i will get him to give you guys a buzz.

I wont lose touch and if anyone needs a Mitsubishi, send me a PM.

Very True! Dave sold me my TE50 No229. And only because he was a gentleman he got the sale! With help from George! All the best.
