Thank you Sluff. I thought my first post was a little obtrusive but did not know how to shrink it. Nice sled!

Nice. I am in the process of selling mine after 20+ years of riding. Either my home or my sled. Tough choice!

I refuse to post a pic of my wheels - Gram gave me her car on permenant loaner, so I now drive the gramma-mobile.  It's a 13 yr old station wagon.  It's got an "Official US Taxpayer" license frame on it, and a sticker declaring that it's protected by "The Club".  (As if anyone would want to steal this thing!)  I feel about 100 years old putzing around in it - but hey, it gets better gas milage than my beat up old truck did.  The truck though, at least was fun - anything with a stick is more fun to drive!

Not laugh?  How can you not laugh? - she's got braided rug mats on the seats, a "quillow" in the back seat, and more "guardian angel" knicknacks stuffed in this thing than you can find at the local dollar store, and I can't take them out because she's "only loaning it to me until she feels better."  She's almost 91, and can barely walk from one side of the room to the other most days.  I have to keep the doo-dads intact because she rides in it once a month when I take her to the doc or when she insists on going to the store.  I did manage to get rid of the moth balls she had stored in the back, though.  What is it with little old ladies and mothballs?

IThe truck though, at least was fun - anything with a stick is more fun to drive!

I definitely agree, a manual transmission is more fun to drive, not the autosticks though, that still takes the fun away!

Rob used to have a 2004 Ram 1500 Hemi 4 door.  Thing was a monster to drive and was horrible on gas.  Thanfully he traded it in for a smaller pickup.  He travels 60 miles round trip each day, the gas was killing us.

Here's my ride, it's a 2008 Hyundai Veracruz.  LOVE IT!
