They arent closing for good as so to speak. They are moving operations to Hillsboro on TV HWY around the Sunset Esplanade. This is a good move actually, and a much better, and nicer, location. They are running some good deals on the Evo's right now. $1,000 below MSRP. I know its not as good as some other vendors, but at least you get this locally and dont have to ship.

If you are interested, talk to Mike Jeffers, and tell him I sent you.

THEY WILL NOT BE MISSED! They are the worst mitsu dealership in the area. 5 months after the Evo X was released I went there to buy a Evo X GSR with SSS. They wouldn't budge lower than $45k after I rolled in driving a Ralliart. Screw them. They deserve it!

Don't worry in a few months you will have a new person to blame, as 1 person alone isn't responsible for the current situation, and 1 person isn't gonna be able to change it... I hate how everyone blames Bush for everything... yeah he might have made some poor decisions, but seriously that guy got dealt a **** hand off the get go...

Maybe so, but a lot of those decisions were BAD and DID have an effect. I think when people say Bush... they mean Bush + Cabinet. If we didn't owe China trillions for the War, we'd be able to borrow that money we already borrowed and invest in our failing infrastructure.

Actually Clinton left him very well off, we had a surplus and a very strong economy and good foreign relations. The war and financial crisis ONLY happened from the Bush administration. You are right about one thing, 1 person alone isn't going to be able to clean up the mess that has been caused.

Did Bush have anything to do with overvaluing of houses and loan securities being given with adjustable interest rates that the people getting them wouldn't be able to afford? I mean when we had an average of 5,000 homes foreclosing a day in the U.S., it was about to get deep really fast. And that was BEFORE any banks filed for bankruptcy protection.

Actually he (and the senate) did. They invested billions into the housing market. Instead of investing that money into other things like renewable energy and our companies. It blew the housing market up and raised the prices way too quickly.

Either way, beaverton still sucks. I have no respect for them, and I am saddened to hear they are moving and not closing down. A bunch of scammers IMO.
