Oh I know I could have gotten more, but I just did not want to deal with the hassle. If I was living in Calgary I would have a much easier time getting rid of it. However with being in Fort McTruckcountry, it is much harder to sell a car up here, especially one like mine where people have the money to buy something new or better.

I am getting a pretty good trade in down in Calgary compared to here. The dealership here only wanted to give me $7000 for the car!! So the $11,000 from down south is a nice jump, that is for sure.

i can't believe how much of an ass my boss is............he used the monday holiday as an excuse not to do payroll till sunday night so nobody gets paid till next monday........now, had he worked monday i could understand a bit better, but no, he didn't, guess who was working monday on the holiday doing all his work, ME This isn't the first time he's pulled this, and since i know it won't the last and he's a fuking moron I think it's time to pack up and GTFO............from the looks of things I'm probably gunna end up driving a rock truck on road construction sites, driving is what I'm good at so I figure why not make some decent money to polish my depth perception before auto-x starts up this season. Anyone know of a good company that hires for that? I only have a class 5 but I have lots of driving experience on my resume, 5ton single axle for 6+ months, flatbed 3ton single axle for about 2 months, and I drove for Purolator as a courier for 6 months too. Zero accidents in my 7+ years of driving, and only speeding tickets in my own personal vehicles, never in a commercial vehicle. Since this job is a POS and I really hate my boss now I will probably walk out sunday night and that will be it for me here so I gotta get rollin on findin a job.

Hey.....at least I am staying in the GMC family!!!

Still have the CF insert for sale:

I have a CF wing insert for the highrise wing for the Cobalt. Brand new they are around $249.99USD plus shipping. It is in pristine shape, and I am asking $175CDN FIRM for it. Here is a link to a brand new wing with pics since I do not have any right now:
http://cobalt-addiction.com/exterior.htm
Scroll down and you will find it.

That is about it for now. So PM me if you want to do a deal. Also this is LOCAL PICKUP only and in Calgary. I won't be back down to Calgary until March 7th, and I would need to have the headlights that night because I am picking the truck up on March 8th.

NOW...if someone has stock OEM Cobalt rims with new tires that they want to part with and some serious cash then I might consider selling the rims......other then that though they are going with the car. Remember that the rims are freshly painted and have NO scratches on them. Plus the tires are BRAND NEW. Here are some pics of the rims:

I would leave out the oval completely and just have a little black snail. Keep it simple. Just my 2c.
