Congrats! There are plenty of nice drives down in the Texas Hill Country. I lived there in the '90s and I really liked it.

Money is a result of success - how many people are unhappy about success? Congrats on your Porsche.

Lovely car! (FYI, San Bernadino County, in California is the largest county in the U.S. at 20,105 square miles. Brewster county, 6,192 square miles, ranks 39th, although it may have the largest population of bugs per square mile!)

Thanks for straightening me out. I took the word of the Brewster County sheriff on that. I guess I should have fact-checked him. Although it could have been Texan hyperbole--we're kinda known for that.

Congrats! Beautiful car! Be careful if you decide to do some "spirited" driving around Blanco road, Specht road, Bulverde area, talked my way out of a 80 in a 40 traffic stop, got lucky. Running radar, lots of deputies in the area.
