    I was gonna say some vehicles are summer only. Yesterday I had a newer Jag rag top park next to me at the grocery store. That has to be hard on the cloth roof. Orange car looked sharp but the salt stains on the car not so much.
    yeah moved down to FL almost 20 years ago from NJ and dont miss that snow and ice at all !

    No, snow makes things a pain. Looks nice on the trees but that is where it ends. I am in hibernation mode.

    I might look into one of those indoor lights that you get vitamin D from the light. Since there is barely any sunlight right now. If I could I would be in Florida during my vacation week. I just get ear infections flying is the problem for me.

    Well, I'm jealous that you were able to get escape from winter. Every winter I wonder wtf we live here. We just had 13 of 15 days with daytime highs of -20c/-4f. The longest cold spell in 50 years. Stupid winter.

    I don't mean to interject it's just in my many travels when I was young I got off the wrong stop on the NJ turnpike off that weird bus station in NYC Port Authority. Anyway had to walk a mile with my very old friend to the cheap hotel with the hair in the pillow.

    Be honest, growing up in Jersey, you didn't know anyone in the mob? You never got a new TV because it fell off the back of a truck? Lol

    Is that the sickle that has the (from what I remember) speed up-shift. I forget if the feature works the clutch and you just pull up on the shifter. Something like that. Tis an interesting feature.
