    I could have kep my Corolla and the truck. 30 MPG in the ancient Corolla (plus easier to maneuver in tight spaces) would have been nice. But (probably) did not like the combined insurance cost of the two. Too late ... some Papa Johns driver has killed my 2007 in 12 months (I could not in 13 years) most likely now ...

    Well, I looked at similar options (design, material, construction) from a few other suppliers, and pricing was higher elsewhere, plus $200-250 in freight. I've built sliders myself, so I have a decent idea on material and labor costs, still say these were a deal, no lead time either!

    I am experimenting now replacing my usual dinners with the freeze-dried field-meals. See if they mess with my ... uh ... stomach ... yeah, stomach ... like some changes in diet have proven to do. Not exactly more expensive then usual dinner ... I do not not have just 2 Taco Swill Soft Tacos for dinner.

    I was given this t-shirt because I have a "Taco". I'm still trying to decide if it's really funny or just silly.
