Oh Man! That has got to be a very nice ride. The So Cal AQMD would poop a brick though if you brought it here. Too bad cuz I bet it burns clean.

I'm sure that I'm not the only one looking forward to meeting you sometime this year and welcome you to to our wacky state.

Thanks for the welcome

I'm John, I live in Anaheim and I can see the Disney fireworks out my front window, (well, I used to before they built the new section of the Convention Center ). I love my 1990 F-150, 4.9 with 171,000 mostly trouble free miles. Used to have a '93 Aerostar, it was great for 14 years but started to nickel and dime me so I sold it. Also have a 2000 Expo with 5.4 that my wife LOVES . Love NASCAR (and most other motorsports), street and dirt bike riding, camping, fishing.........
