    Yep, I paid more for another brand later in the winter, and it did not perform as well as the first brand!

    Just how far do you have to drive for your 2-3 times a week sessions?[/QUOTE]

    I'd like to know how long it takes to drive 125 mi up there. All highway or congested traffic?[/QUOTE]

    Rural highway up in my area. I have to see the surgeon again on the 29th for a re check. That trip is to Ottawa, the national capital. That is congested in the city and a 250 mile round trip.

    Gonna take a ride with my buddy who owns a large auto recycling business. He's taking a load of cabs and beds down to a guy who builds custom 3/4 and one ton 4wd Pickups. This guy builds some really neat trucks many of which are diesel and hi-performance. Will be passing by the area where Loon lives on the way there. Everybody have a safe day.

    Not much to see where we drop off. He buys up wrecks from the auctions and re builds them @ the shop there. Finished products are on display @ his two showrooms which are quite a ways away from the re build shop.

    Neat, thunder snow- that happens here occasionally - usually means we are going to get dumped on.
