## Resource

This week, Alex and Randy begin with a frank look at the Deville Debacle of the weekend before last and have a discussion about how we handle major issues and mistakes as a company. On a lighter note, they move on to a recap of the fun had in Arizona for Auction Week and a followup in Vegas, debate the value proposition of a $40 corndog at the veritable circus of a live tentpole auction, and give shout-outs to several of the BaT valued Local Partners who were in Scottsdale with us. Next up, our excitement for the upcoming BaT Meet-Up in Palm Springs ; James Garner's black/gold Hertz GT350; auction fees on high-dollar cars; the Eisenhower step; blowing minds in an R34 Skyline while driving through the desert with bros; an ode to early Hondas; the perfect '32 Ford spec; the Super Bowl vs GNRS, an easy choice if ever there was one; and finally, nerding out on Pajeros, Ladas, and 1970s ski racks.
