Dear Tom and Ray:

In a recent column on safety, you wrote "...and when a milk truck hits you from behind at 70 mph and your head ends up in the back seat..." My husband is a milk man. And when I read him this column, he wanted me to write you and ask "where did those guys find a milk truck that would do 70?" So guys, where did you find this magical milk truck? Kate

Tom: It was going downhill, Kate.

It's NEVER cheaper in the long run to buy a new car. Want proof? Order Tom and Ray's pamphlet How to Buy a Used Car: Things That Detroit and Tokyo Don't Want You to Know. To order, send (check or money order) to Ruin, P.O. Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475. You can also order online.
