If you make it as far east as Blairmont, please place your hand outside your window with all fingers and thumb folded, then extend your Index finger for my ex to see. I'm sure she'll enjoy that! From: john Subject: fsj: Re: [db] RE: Diesel thoughts... YES... this would be BETTER than a 300GD or an XJ... two problems... 1) don't have 12K Euros, or even 12K USD. ;) 2) not going to Europe after all... :( However, when the prices get under 10K USD over there, what's that, about 8K E? I might look into bringing one over... The WJ is a superb Jeep... the only slight downside is the A pillar visibility issue, which one quickly adapts to. Heading up to Jasper/BC Glacier in a few days... thinking about taking the WJ, but with BioDiesel in cans I can make a significant part of the trip without hitting refueling stations and save money for important things like hotel and food. ;) Pictures to follow. BTW, Omega is last reported on a truck heading east on I-90 in Ritzville, WA... east of Moses Lake, west of Spokane... on it's way to Maryland to the new owners. :) I got the 4" exhaust setup in my '94 Blazer and it's doing nicely... going to put a pair of leather WJ seats in tonight for the trip... also hooking up some IPF foglights... john _________________________________________________________________ Stay up to date on your PC, the Web, and your mobile phone with Windows Live. http://clk.atdmt.com/MRT/go/msnnkwxp1020093185mrt/direct/01/ ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 7 Sep 2008 22:14:08 -0700 (PDT) From: john Subject: fsj: on the road again... in Kamloops BC tonight... topped off the tank at $5.35/gallon!!! heading for Glacier tomorrow, then back down to WA. nothing spectacular in the following pictures... just snapshots along the way... http://wagoneers.com/fotos/2008/09-Sep-07-trip-north-Snohomish-to-KamloopsBC/ tomorrow...
