Chris, I'm glad everthing is looking up for you. I never made it a part of my business to ask but I agree that you made the best choice you could. Once I get my car back on the road again we should go for a nice "drive".
PS..My car had it's first boat ride this weekend from Tobermory to South Bay (didn't expect the 2m swells). Put 1100k on the old motor in 3days and now it's time to retire it for good.
