Why, Why, Why ?

[FL SAAC]

Why does this happen all the time ?

You are at a stoplight or at a car show or in a parking lot or getting gas or broken down, well you get it.

You look around and you see a car or a truck or a bike painted in gray / grey.

You say to yourself why, why, why !

They put plenty of thought into the options, ac, ps, cruise, pw, auto or manual, cloth or leather,  stripes, wheels, hard top or convertible, engine size etc.

But they just could not decide on a "color" so they ordered it in "primer" with a clear coat.

Why, why, why !

[FL SAAC]

Then you tell them, I mean you ask them....hey why couldn't you decide what color to paint your car?

And they look at you with this befuddled look....

They usually reply: excuse me, what, I don't understand, no comprende, what did you say ?

You restate your question, "why couldn't you decide what color to paint your car, isn't that primer?"

That's when the fireworks go off.

I ask why are people soooooo sensitive ?

And the number of colors that are basically flat.  No pearl in it at all.  No sheen.

One big advantage is that you can touch them up real easy...almost unnoticable after the first squirt....
