I'd crunch on those numbers a little and be sure to see the invoice. Around here they were selling 5.4 cc 4x4 5spd xlt for 27k or 27,900. I almost bought one then. Funny though they wouldn't let a v-10 go for less than 30. I know it's a 600 dollar option but may be more difference than that by the time it hits the showroom floor.

Or you could be like me and CWB and go diesel. I picked mine up for 22k with 65,000 on it. It's straight and clean and will probably be on the road longer than a 5.4 bought new for 27 off the lot today. There is something about being the only owner though. Up to you.

Not meant to start a fight with the gassers here. Just another opinion to consider.

Off topic, I know
Yes, Eagle Point is nice, but actually Stone Ridge (3 miles away) is a better layout, just not conditioned as nicely as E.P. Don't play "Stoney" when it rains...soggy.

I played your course (Myrtle Creek) in a Pro-Am...very nice.

We'll see how long the moderators go before they delete this

Monsta is a kind and magnanamous person If you looked through the "as if you care new pics" thread you must know that.

Well if you were playing a pro-am at Myrtle Ditch then I changed my mind . I don't wanna play with you. I just read about the 8 and 10 thing and it seemed we were equals I'm just a hacker. Shoot around 105 or 110. In the high 90's when I'm doin' good

Well I say that when your golf score gets lower then your average atf temp and your handicap drops below your mpg, then you are getting better

OIC - What happened to 8s & 10s? Sandbagging? Sounds like I better look up rrmike next time I'm out there, we're more in the same league. One thing we all have in common, though...we can all pull some really nice golf carts in STYLE with our SDs!

Does this mean my son-in-law is a better golfer than me because he drives a Neon?
