Funny how this statement made me think of only one person (T Bone). I take it that is who you were meaning.

Best regards, south
I like yourself south am looking forward to the possibiliy of improved economy, lower emissions, even less weight and a big old fat dose of torque. Why do so many people see the move to FI as such a backward step.
