    Just Saying Goodbye

    I haven't really posted much over the past 3-4 months due to losing interest in my Mag. I decided to bite the bullet and trade her in this past week for a vehicle my wife can enjoy. She's graduating college in 2 weeks and this was her graduation gift. Of course, I lost my butt on the deal because of the Magnums great resale value I wanted to thank many of you for being very helpful, either in purchasing some of my unneeded equipment or selling me my unneeded equipment...lol. Good luck to all with their LX vehicles, and I hope you don't have the same problems I did with mine.

    As Bipto said... don't go just 'cause you traded the Mag. We'll still type at ya! Besides... the Mrs. may eventually see the error of her ways! LOL. What vehicle does she enjoy?
    Still in love with my first wife, and first car ('68 Charger)... Still have the wife!

    I'll still stop in from time to time to see what new mods everyone is doing. My wife originally wanted one of those Infiniti's like the 350z, then she wanted a mustang, then she wanted something else, so I finally talked her into another SUV. We have a 1995 Ford Explorer (that I have taken over :( ) We looked at several SUVs and she really like the Trailblazer best. So, we got a fully loaded LT with all the bells and whistles and she loves it. I have to say that it is a very nice ride!! I'll drive the explorer for a few years until we get some of the new truck paid down, then I'll get me something else, maybe a used Mag w/ a hemi this time!!!
