You might need some help moving those two Ruf's around. I am available to help you at any time should the need arise.

Steve,

Did you get pictures of the family reunion? Rufus is a great big brother to have around. I hope you folks don't wake up all the neighbors.

It's me!!! After 3 years of being ruf-less, I'm back!

Thank you Pong for allowing me to be the lucky guy to take care of your Ruf. It will be loved and given a happy home

I get to experience it as part of our family RV vacation. Can't wait to have it in the garage.

Steve, I love that you got a pic of them together. Lol.

So excited! !!

Chris,

What they say about buying the seller is totally true here. Pong is the dream seller... not just saying that because he's my friend.

This thread has good karma... Both Pong and Javier are a true credit to RL.

Congrats to both of you & especially Javier.

I'm looking forward to Javier's posts with his new and latest Ruf.

Ditto!
Pong & Javier are two classy guys in here.
I will miss him, but hopefully you'll chime in time to time..

Still in shock that this has transpired. This is fantastic news! 1 RUF in a lifetime is fantastic, 2 is lighting striking! So who is driving RV home?

Yes Javier the Third Musketeer,

I am happy that my Ruf is now with another Rufaholic. These car deserve true admirers. Javier will take great care of her.

Enjoy in great health.

Sorry to see you selling it, Pong, but happy to see that it's still in the Rennlist family.

Wow, great news all around. While I haven't driven this particular BTR, I have driven one in Dallas. What a blast (pun intended) to drive. So fast, so raw. And Pong's car is so special (as is Pong).

Great connection here guys. I'm glad that the car is staying in the family.
