First post, just wanted to say hi.
As for the car, the PPI was done today, and aside from a few minor items, all looks good. Dealer is taking care of said minor issues, and if all goes well, I pick it up Saturday. Oh yeah...it's a '95 Cab.
I can't bring myself to put that in my profile until it's actually home. With my luck, that would be the end of the deal.
Like someone else posted today, I've already gotten more than my money's worth out of these forums, so I became a member.

Yes, it stands for Rainman...old nickname.
Being in Alaska, you might be able to understand how hard it's going to be for me to not put the top down, considering it's about 30 degrees here in NJ. (Thinking about how much a replacement would be, after I cracked the rear window from the cold should help.)

Talking Welcome....

Go ahead, unless it is raining, or hail, or sleet, crank up the heat and drop the top. If you have one of those behind the head anti-wind thingamajigs, you will be just fine!

Thanks Trader, I'm in Manahawkin. Just moved down here from Northern NJ (Cranford) last summer.
