I thought we just had to worry about Jose and Jamal in Texas, didn't realize we had to worry about Jerry too

So if I did get my car down there, who would be responsible for looking over it? Sounds like a good plan if someone could take me there from the Omni although if it's 45 minutes EAST (didn't know that was possible) and the Omni is west it could be a haul.

car will stay in my shop with my other 2, just bring a car cover if you want to.. its not that big of deal. The drive is not that big of a deal either... most people drive a lot further then most other around the country usually do.
