    Per instructions from the moderator, I am introducing myself. As to oldest, I'm 70. I have been playing with cars most all my life and have owned close to 70 vehicles. I currently own eight. A 2017 Ford Expedition EL, 2008 Ford Sport Track Adrenalin, 2005 Subaru STI garage queen with 18,000 mile never driven in the rain, 2010 Subaru STI hatch WRB with "Goldies" (for you Subie fans) my DD, 2003 Subaru OBS, 1988 Porsche 911 with 31,000 mile only driven in the rain once (by accident), 1978 Toyota Land Cruiser complete frame off rebuild with lift off fiberglass front end and small block Chevy. and now a 2003 TRD 4x4 Double Cab Tacoma 80,000 mile one owner, which brings me to joining this site. I am a retired emergency room nurse, SCUBA instructor and off shore sailer. I am a Vietnam veteran and now live on a lake in South Carolina. Enjoying myself and attempting to go into liver failure :). I have just posted a question in the 1st Gen exhaust system forum, so please feel fee to give advice!

    Lake Moultrie, not far from Charleston. As a matter of fact I can take my boat through a lock here on the lake into the Cooper river which takes me to Charleston harbor to the Atlantic Ocean...all from my fresh water lake.
