Default 65 degrees -top down in NoVa Today!

65 degrees and sunny in the middle of January in Northern Virginia. Had to get the vert out and put the top down, It's been a few months and I keep reading about the people in Florida and California and wishing it was me. Today it was!

Love that vert!!!!

The power is great except I keep puckering the leather in the driver's seat.

I replaced the Antenna on my Ruby Grocery Getter. The only item left that needs attention is the headliner. The headliner is on backorder. After I replace the headliner, I'll be done and everything will be in good working order.
