Hey Mike,

I had fun anyway being a storage unit.(eventhough I look like a lobster
HEHE) Ya I did sort of feel like a minority bcs I was the only V6er
there. But it is not like I haven't spanked a few vehicles with my
"little" V6. Who knows, maybe next year I will run it. I hope I can do
better than that girl in the Saturn. HEHE. I would love to do better
than, Hell as good as that diesel Dually. That was one bad ass truck.

But at least I didn't mistake one truck for another one, right Gene?!?!
But I'll leave it at that. For now.

I love blackmail, don' you?!

Later,
Geoffrey
~~~~~98 DAK CC 3.9L~~~~~
(good looking storage unit!)
