Hello everyone. Just wanted to let you know who I was. I used to be a sponsor, but had to cancel because of economic times. Anyway, I'm sure you all know who I am because I announced to you that I was canceling the sponsorship in advance. Anyway, love you guys and this forum. Look forward to continuing to post with you all.

glad to hear that you? stayed with us.
regret that your business is another casualty of these tough economic times.
this is a major world wide recession/depression that is just starting, not a run of the mill 2>5 year event that we have seen in the past 50 years.
must have missed your announcement while on one of our recent trips
our Aero's are rigs to survive an economic depression in, much as the old Model T of the 1910s was to survive the 1930s depression. easy to work on compared to the new fangled contraptions, easy on gas, cheap parts. still remember my grandpa hand cranking his Model T in the 40s.
my grandfather and his sons drove them throughout the depression and into the war years, tough cars made for rough roads. many family photos have an old beat up Model T in them, muddy and dusty from the dirt roads of the time. closest paved road was 20 miles away.

Hope it all works out for the good. This years repair bill on the Aero has so far cost me $205CAD grand total (new front shocks) + some hoses & a thermostat. Not many 13 year old vehicles can boast that I'd wager!
Carry on Aero-ing!
