In the upper right corner you'll see the word "quote, modify, remove". Just click quote and it will insert it into your reply. Or you can just type
Quote
and then the same thing after the quote with a / before the Q.

The only stupid question is the one not asked! ;D

How do you go about selecting certain sentences and not the whole post?  I tried highlighting and deleting things but then it doesn't put the quote box around it.

Be sure you aren't trying to edit in the "preview" window. When you hit the quote button, it puts the stuff in between the bracketed words "quote" and "/quote." You can add, subtract, change or even divide - by that I mean you can insert a bracketed "/quote," then make your commentary, then restart the quote by putting a bracketed "quote" again.

A little practice and it will come to you. Stuart is the master at this...

One other suggestion if I may...

When you're quoting, the quote will start off like this:

Quote
Start your quote at the very beginning of the box as I have here and quote box won't be larger than it needs to. Same with the end.

If it looks like this:
Quote
   and you start here, the box will be larger as seen in the above posts.

Not a big deal but FYI...

As for good looking, he isn't on the website. But then again I don't think I have seen any of our dealer friends pictures on thier sites.  I guess I'm the only one brave enough to post mine,,  or I just figured you all deserved it.
