Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

High school student Steve Ortiz may be zipping around Glendora, California in a silver sports car these days, but don't let his ride fool you.
He's not a spoiled rich kid, and this isn't his family's car either.
His 2000 Porsche Boxster S is the result of patience, hard work and the Craigslist bartering section.
The 17-year-old student at Charter Oak High School has made 14 trades over two years to finally acquire the vehicle.
He started with just a cell phone.
Ortiz would spend hours a day browsing Craigslist looking to swap.
"I get so many people who say, 'Can you trade my phone for a car?' I just say, 'Yeah. It's not that easy,'" he told the San Gabriel Valley Tribune.
At first, he traded the old cell phone for a better cell phone.
From there, he swapped for an iPod.
After a few dirt bikes, he ended up with a MacBook Pro, which eventually turned into a 1987 Toyota 4Runner.
There was just one minor problem: Ortiz was too young to drive, so he traded again for a souped-up off-road golf cart.
That led to another dirt bike, a streetbike and then a series of cars ending with a 1975 Ford Bronco.
Ortiz then traded the Bronco, which turned out to be a collectible valued at about $15,000, for the Porsche.
While Ortiz mastered the art of trading up, he's still learning some lessons about upkeep and maintenance on a luxury vehicle.
At 17, the $150 oil changes and $1,000 tune-ups are a little bit steep.
So for now Ortiz is back on Craigslist, plotting his next trade.
I bet he told the garage he took it to about he traded on craiglist till he got the boxster. Mechanic thinks hmmmm I don't have a porsche and this guys bragging how easy it is to raise the price snicker snicker. Bingo $1000
given the choice between an old Boxster and a cell phone, I would have to ask, "what kinda cell phone?"
reminds me of an old joke:
an old man and woman knocking around the house, the old man decides to go lay down for a while and the woman rummaging thru the closets comes across an old cape with a big "S" on it...
she decides to get needik and then wear only the cape for a surprise for her hubby...
she sneeks in the bedroom and leaps up on the bed standing over him with nothing on but the cape, plcaes her hands on her hips and epclaims boldly
"SUPER PU$$Y"
the old man looks for a second... thinks and asks, "what kind of soup?"
