    I'm shooting for 62 :fingerscrossed:!

    @Cypherian - Just hooked up the charger and Tapped off the windshield washer circuit. Works with the key on. That and my Auxiliary lights is the extent of added electrical add-ons. Sorry I can't test remote while phone is charging with this setup.

    One last GM automobile picture. Back when I had my Chevy I came across this Grand Camino! It's a grand national front clip and interior mounted up on a 5th Generation El Camino. :thumbsup:

    Wind has picked up and could get 60mph gusts starting around 5pm. Have a fun and safe Sunday Peeps !!

    It's a work in progress. See my build thread.
    Well... I was going to retire this October when I turn 60. But I may ne reconsidering... I went to my boss and his boss, and explained some things to them about my workload, and simply told them that if we can't get me some help, so that I can quit working 60 hours weeks (which could easily turn into 70-80) in April when one of my engineers goes on 12 weeks of maternity of leave, that I was planning to submit my retirement paperwork for October - that I was simply no longer interested in working those kinds of hours.

    They talked a good game, and if they follow through, I may work a few more years... Could make a positive difference in my retirement lifestyle. I seriously used to love my job. But last couple of years have been brutal, and I learned to despise it.

    Yeah a lot of folks sit on them for a investment, and keep the mileage low.

    For me the problem to retire "early" is health insurance. Period.
    You can save and all that but paying out mega bucks for very week will wipe you out.
    So now who knows what the hell insurance and retirement will be like now...

    This is True! I'll be able to keep mine through the County, but it'll be more than I'm contributing now. We have some peeps hanging on just for the Benys!

    Afternoon everyone

    Raining right now and temps in the mid 40's , have only seen .25" since midnite . The heavier more damaging rain is supposed to hit around 1300 with possible flooding
