Glad to have you here. So you are up at Nacimiento, huh? That would be a real nice place to live. What do you do up there, besides breathe clean air?

Right on - that does look like it would take a little getting used to. Do you know if it has the stock gears in the diff's?

Good to see that the gears have been changed. 4:88's should be OK for 39.5's. Certainly a lot better than the stock ratio would have been.

Where do you have to go to pick it up?

Bakersfield, (like 2 1/2 hours) guy wants cash, because he doesnt think a 20 yr old has that kinda skrilla, so we had to wait till thursday... but deposit is down. When he said he wanted cash, i had to decide the safest way to do it, thats why we waitin till thurs to meet at a bank.

Good move. I imagine you will be taking someone along as well, to drive the other vehicle back. Maybe a couple of people.
