My business, which helps facilitate cars being shipped from the Port of Long Beach to Asia and Europe, is booming. They're taking full advantage of our collapsed economy and buying all our cars.

In Tennessee right now, you can get a great deal on a recreational 4WD vehicle.  They're out in everybody's front yards right now with "for sale" signs on them.
