Excellent!

Ahhh, now I remember.

You saw the specs on my car, do you think I should expect any trouble on
the trip? Low-grade gas problems? Anything like that?

I may roll on the stock 15 inch alloys and have the SSRs shipped
afterwards. I will want a second set of wheels for snow tires anyway if
I stay up there.

Thanks!

Pat

Gonna meet another r.a.m.m. member, cool, especially after being so
coldly rejected by Carol.

Now let's talk housing. You wouldn't happen to have a spare bedroom
would you? Rent free would be great! ;-)

I'll give you a call.

Thanks!

Pat

One way? Spare bedroom? You leavin' Austin then Pat? (Sounds like it should
be a country song :-))

Nah. Remember, though: high-altitude gas is lower octane, so don't fill
up just before you drop back down below 5000'.

It sure looks like it. A couple of friends are saying no way will I do
it, it looks like it is time to surprise them.

I didn't get an answer from Bruce, so I am assuming that it is a go with
the bedroom at his place. I hope he can cook... ;-)

No, not much room at my place. Only 2 bedrooms and our pet Mountain Lion
sleeps in one of them. "Jasper" is a good boy and he walks on a leash.
He keeps most of the local dogs ont of the yard. :-) The good thing is,
our "pet control" lady likes him so she doesn't tell too many people we
have him ! :-) I don't think he would go along with a guy from Texas
wanting to move him over. ( Oh yes, buy the way he snoors. It's not too
bad now that we sound proofed the room. )

Are you out of your %#$@% mind? You've got the critter exactly the way
you want it, KEEP IT!

You'll never own another car that's exactly what you want. I sold a
car years back that I shouldn't have and have never stopped regretting
it...

I told you to start using deodorant! ;-)

Thanks, I had not thought about that. This here flatlander has only been
above 5,000 feet a few times.
