I bear a striking resemblance to Broderick Crawford (plus I have his suit and fedora) so I'm all over driving the charger 10-4...

Ummm, one or the other of us is mathematically challenged. I'm thinking it's a 50% markup...

teebee................... really hoping that we can get a few others such as whay, R&L, BadAV, and Dshammy to make the trip too...........

knowing that we have some coming from the north and west, could potentially have a few ride in together..................

really need to know a couple months in advance, so potentially could book a group of rooms in the area..................

I knew we would befuddle the basers. It is BOTH a 30% gross margin AND a 50% markup. Jeez...

I'm down with meeting up with some others somewhere along the way. Last time we went, we traveled through KC and east on I70 then south on I57 (IIRC). If H1 is interested in going we could meet up with him somewhere along that route. We could also take a more southern route and maybe meet up with some of the southern clan.

See....to get a gross margin you have to take the amount you sell for... In this case 29.99 minus what the cost of goods sold is 19.99 which gives you a 10.00 markup. Now you take the 10.00 and divide it by the 29.99 and you get 33.....er......hmmm......29.32% gross margin. which I rounded up to 33% because GS'ers always round up......way up...... Later today we are going to learn how to invert and multiply fractions........ or not....

Where do you think that is DeShame.......? Bakersfield CA?

I am kinda getting excited about the new C8. Doubt if I would ever have one but I think the C8.R is going to kick some serious *** when it comes out. I still like my engines up front thank you.....that's like a Conventional Peterbilt vrs a Cab over Pete. Speaking of Pete's, me and Lola are going on a cruise this week to pick up a load of corn seed in Iowa. Hope I remember to stop at the weigh stations. I'll be East bound and down loaded up and trucking....... anybody got a copy on this H1? Hows it looking over there? 10-4 you'er clean back to the Star City.......Mabel is on duty at the Coffee Pot and she's as hot as the coffee....copy that Road Runner? I love talking CB talk.....

Have some kind of day Hamms......

Just got signed up for this years half mile race. I was pleased to see they have added a normally aspirated class and a stick shift class......since most running are blowers or turbos that will be nice and good that we don't have to compete with those that just put it in drive and stomp on it. So normally aspirated with a stick shift car = a real man bracket this year.

second to third second to third second to third.........this isn't so hard to do......
