Tom, I can certainly empathize with you after spending your life savings on 
your dream ride, only to discover, to your great dismay, that your dream was 
in a state of great decay. But as they say, every dark cloud has a silver 
lining, I'm here to offer you an exit from your plight, a ray of hope, some 
might say:
If you can get your rolling wreck to run or not, I'll offer you $10, that's 
ten U.S. smackers, even if you have to get your Norwegian donkey to oat-up 
and drag your over-priced pile of iron to Texas. With the American economy 
being in the dustbin, to use a more gentile word than what first came to 
mind, the ten bucks in your pocket could probably swing a pretty sweet deal 
at our local Ford truck dealer. You'll just have to be patient with some of 
those salesmen, however. Upon hearing your accent, one would likely ask, 
"Whar you frum, boy?" And after politely telling them that you were from 
Norway and that your poor donkey nearly died trying to drag your dream-puff 
all the way to Texas, one of them would probably have this jaw-dropping look 
of incredulity and say something like "You gotta be shittin' me!"
