The scary part is the doggie does some of the driving....... How was the Land Barge......? fuel mileage must not be anything to write home about...... to bad you can't get a 13 speed in one of those......

Got the 56 all polished up.....she's looooking goooood....mon...... I guess I am now an Adams Polish guy......good stuff....my wife keeps wanting to steal the big fluffy towels though......I have had to hide them....... told her Christmas is coming.....

Well better get back in the house.......its time for..........

Ruxxy, your trip makes me jealous. Good roads ahead for you. I kind of like this version of RK's song. Shows some of those roads you can really let it out and feel the Vette extend if you are going down 93 at all. Happy vacation time in the South to you. At least you won't have a fried battery this time around. Like your company, Just good music turned up and a best friend.



Ya, Go Cougs...still a tough road ahead for them.

Ruxy, in case you missed the Game Day show when we played Oregon over a week ago here's a sample. Darn thing starts at 6am here but caught some of it. Hope the Dogs play like they did against Cal when we get them.

Looks like about 7-8 mpg, like the old days...kind of like an airplane depends on a headwind or a tailwind...The V-10 has good power, keeping the revs down a little can still pull 45-50 on the big hills. Gets me past most of the slow trucks pretty good. Went down this hill and back up pretty easy...Lewiston ID, lots of sand turnouts going down for the trucks.




And a lot of the comforts of home at a small scale...

That looks like a blast....if I ever won the lottery, one of those would be my first purchase.

planned on taking the red roadster out for some fuel before the forecasted rain again moves in...…………….

BUT Ms.. 427 thought I should put up a few decoration for Halloween instead...…………….

not being one to disappoint her...………………. thought I would share a picture when I was finally done...……….
