Default Getting lost on a beautiful Texas day




It was a perfect day to get lost on Texas county back roads with my son Jake.

I like the wheels (are they OEM) and the very wide rear tires. Looks great.

Nice car and son. The Republic of Texas is a great place. My years at Ft. Sam Houston were some of the best of my Army career. The Hill Country is a great place for a nice drive in the country. Where is Pilot Point?

Being in Texas on business a few days I can attest to the nice weather here right now. Enjoy that ride.
