Yeah, it's fun. Wish I had it in my possession. Called today and the sales guy didn't have a clue on when they will have anything in. They are calling Suzuki on Monday to see if they can get one sent in. Hopefully they won't take forever. Really killing the impulse buying mood.

Larry, you are post-hoing away today. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] What number you shooting for?

 

She got A Beetle Bus last week, 1970 Westfalia (she's re-living her youth)

 

Hey, that's the year I was born! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

No-No, There is a place called Matlock out on the western edge of Mason county. The storys from out there make you believe you are in hillbilly country in the SE of the USA. Examples,

Wife is teaching a class to the Matlock volunteers firefighters, during the break, one of them shoots a passing coyote. He reluctantly returns to class, wanting to wait and see if anymore are around.

Or the one about responding out to the house with the big white rock to mark the driveway (address, we don't need do stinking address) for a crazy guy needing a trip to the hospital. They arrive to find a guy naked on the roof (it's December BTW) baying at the moon. They stand there watching him and discussing how to get him down, when the local Fire Chief walks up and says "Come on" and walks into the the trees away from the house. They follow but ask why they are going away from the house. He says, "That ain't him."

I need to get you out to Canyon River, just past Matlock, for a fast logging road ride with some little valleys to drive off the road into. You know, like 150 feet deep and 60 degree valley walls.

 

That means you have to help watch for good deals on parts!

 

Oh! A VW bus. My Aunt and Uncle had one of those, must have put about a million miles, maybe less [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img], on that thing. They always loved it. I hated the dang thing because every time they came to the farm I had to change the oil, tighten all the loose bolts, fix the exhaust, set the valves or something. Lots of routine maintenance but one tough little rig.

 

God, I must be old. By 1970 I already had two tour in Southeast Asia and been back stateside a year. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]
