For some reason this thread reminded me of something that happened to me one time. A few years back I was in my 300 ZX driving back from visiting a friend in Austin. All the sudden the engine died. (I found out later that the ignition module had gone out) So I coast to a stop on the side of the road cursing my bad luck. I had seen a gas station/store about a mile back so I got out and started walking. I didn't even try to flag anyone down figuring no one would stop. As I was walking a mexican guy and his dog passed by in a Suzuki jeep-thingy. Next thing I know I see this guy circle around, come back and stop to give me a ride. He didn't speak much english but understood I needed to get to the station.
He went out of his way to help me and I was very grateful. I had to force him to take anything for his trouble. Finally got him to take $5 and told him if nothing else to buy some food for his dog or something.
I guess the point I'm trying to make is that not everyone sucks (including people other than X5/X3World people
). Don't let the "bad apple" spoil your faith in the bunch.
