No, believe it or not, I'm on the Olympic Penninsula, and I've restored a '59 240 Utility, a '41 M, and 2 F-12's. So the world of International/Navstar is not a mystery to me. plus there's a Tractor Enthusiasts Club Local to me and 75% are Red also. We love rust!

I dove into programming, then dove out. It's too boring for me. I can hack my way into simple stuff, but I leave the heavy lifting to the code jockeys.
